New York State Safety Plans
- New York State Highway Safety Strategic Plan – the Governor’s Traffic Safety Committee (GTSC) develops this plan using a data-driven approach to identify problems and set priorities for the state’s highway safety program, including bicycle and pedestrian safety. GTSC takes into account issues and strategies identified by the GTSC member agencies, other state and local agencies, enforcement agencies and not-for-profit organizations that have submitted applications for funding through the Section 402 State and Community Highway Safety grant program.
- New York State Pedestrian Safety Plan. The five-year, multi-agency initiative provides $110 million to improve safety for pedestrians through infrastructure improvements, public education efforts and enforcement across Upstate and Long Island.
- New York State Bicycle Master Plan.
- New York State Department of Transportation’s Bicycling in New York
