SWOT Methodology

» Methodology • Survey at Annual Meeting

• Advisory Committee Discussion

• 13 Individual Interviews

» Purpose • Inform the CHSP

– Management/Organizational Structure

– Processes

– Strategies

– Action steps

7

SWOT - Strengths

» Annual Meeting enables partnerships, collaboration, and

networking and sustains momentum in safety activities.

» Montana has maintained a good level of implementation

activity with most emphasis area teams continuing to meet

regularly.

» Large and diverse group of active and engaged stakeholders.

8

SWOT - Strengths

» The State Highway Traffic Safety Section (SHTSS) has initiated

a process of formally scoring grant applications, which will

ensure continuous improvement and focus on results.

» Strategies in the Annual Element are tracked and reported in a

very thorough and comprehensive manner.

9

SWOT - Weaknesses

» Culture that has historically tolerated certain unsafe driving

behaviors such as impaired driving and non-use of seatbelts.

» Lack of legislative awareness and involvement in the CHSP.

» Flexibility of the implementation process and reporting may

need to be improved.

» Prosecution data are not easily accessible; difficult to

determine which judicial education and law enforcement

programs are improving outcomes

10

SWOT - Opportunities

» Director Tooley strongly supports data-driven decisions and

provides strong safety leadership with the roll out of the

Vision Zero message. • An opportunity exists for Vision Zero to serve as overarching

branding to communicate about safety to wide range of Montana

agencies and the public.

» Safety effort would be greatly strengthened by re-establishing

an Executive Committee to ensure support by all agency

leadership.

11


» MDT is evaluating engineering policy alignment with Vision

Zero.

» New safety managements system is under development,

which will improve crash data for analysis and integration of

multiple datasets

» New approaches to making legislative changes should be

considered. • Potential idea is to develop a Traffic Safety Act – a plan for

addressing multiple safety law opportunities. Legislators could

be asked to approve Vision Zero.

12

» Evaluation must be a central part of safety efforts, to make

sure the programs being implemented are really having an

impact on reducing fatalities and injuries.

» Messaging for education and outreach needs to be carefully

crafted to hit on the right values and actually change behavior,

building upon lessons learned in the public health arena.

» Multi-jurisdictional enforcement campaigns (county, city,

state) and saturation patrols would be very effective.

13


SWOT - Threats

» Need to avoid the CHSP simply documenting what people are

already doing. Now there is overemphasis on reporting. The

process is having limited success in advancing new activities.

» Concern that Montana is too broad in its approach to safety.

There is overlap of emphasis areas and strategies. • Over extends staff

• May not generate the best possible results in coordinating efforts

to reduce crash fatalities and injuries.

» It will be important in selecting the emphasis areas not to limit

the future ability to address emerging issues.

14

Data Analysis

Crash Data Overview

» Based on crash report

» Data from MDT Safety Management System

» All public roads

» Lacking Tribal injury data (only fatal)
