Cover of SCRTSP Description of PracticeThe South Central Regional Transportation Safety Plan (SCRTSP) is the first regional, data-driven action plan developed in Louisiana as part of the State's efforts to implement its Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP). The plan is a living document that adopts and disseminates the SHSP “Destination Zero Deaths” goals and strategies down to the regional and local levels. With ongoing support from Federal, State, and local agencies, the SCRTSP uses action plans to undertake regional and local projects addressing four emphasis areas (alcohol-related driving, occupant protection, crashes involving young drivers, and infrastructure and operations).
