The Strategic Transportation Safety Plan (STSP) was adopted in 2020. It is a statewide plan, intended for all Colorado stakeholders involved with transportation safety; it replaces the Strategic Highway Safety Plan (2014 -2019). The plan guides all Colorado agencies and other stakeholders in taking action on improving transportation safety – specifically in areas of leadership, safety culture, driver behavior, and infrastructure. The plan incorporates a "Zero Deaths" philosophy, and has identified 15 key strategies to target Colorado’s high and critical priority safety issues. Our goal is to reduce fatalities and serious injuries in Colorado by 15% by 2023. The STSP has now been superseded by the 2025 Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP) and can be found at the following link: https://transportationsafety.colorado.gov/colorado-traffic-safety-summit.

Colorado’s first VRU Assessment was issued in 2023. Following guidance from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the 2025 Strategic Highway Safety Plan (https://transportationsafety.colorado.gov/strategic-highway-safety-plan) supersedes this report and contains an updated VRU assessment.
