Safety Performance Targets and Data

Federal regulations require MPOs and State DOTs to set targets for five safety performance measures. The most recent targets and numbers are reported below. Targets are based on NCDOT’s methodology of reducing crashes by 50% by the year 2030.

NCDOT adopted its 2021(current) safety targets in August 2020. These measures were adopted by the FBRMPO Board in February 2021 and align with the State Highway Safety Plan goal of cutting fatalities and serious injuries by 50% by 2035, and zero by 2050.
