The goal of HSIP evaluation is for agencies to estimate the effectiveness of highway safety improvements. The evaluation process reveals if the overall program has been successful in reaching performance goals established in the planning process, including its effectiveness in reducing the number of fatalities and serious injuries. Evaluation results should flow back into the various HSIP components to improve future planning and implementation, ensure resources are used effectively, and increase the effectiveness of future safety improvements.
