Under the authority and approval of Governor Nathan Deal, the Governors Office of Highway Safety (GOHS) produces an annual Highway Safety Plan (HSP) which serves as Georgias programmatic guide for the implementation of highway safety initiatives and an application for federal grant funding from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). This document is used to justify, develop, implement, monitor, and evaluate traffic safety activities for improvements throughout the federal fiscal year. National, state and county level crash data along with other information such as safety belt use rates are used to ensure that the planned projects are data driven with focus on areas of greatest need. In compliance with federal requirements, GOHS will ensure that at least 40% of the annual Section 402 funds will be used by or for the benefit of political subdivisions of the State in carrying out local highway safety programs. All goals and objectives of GOHS are driven by the agencys mission statement. |
