The American Traffic Safety Services Association (ATSSA) released a case study on the benefits of median barriers and guardrails at the 48th Annual Convention & Traffic Expo in San Antonio, Texas, and is now making it available digitally for free to the public.

On Wednesday, Oct. 11, ATSSA Chair Debra Ricker submitted written testimony to the House Subcommittee on Highways and Transit, highlighting ATSSA's strong belief that roadway safety must remain a critical focal point of any new transportation legislation.

In 2013, Traffic and Safety Engineer for the Iowa Department of Transportation (Iowa DOT), Willy Sorenson, was asked by the then-Iowa DOT Director, Paul Trombino, to research which states were posting fatality counts on their Dynamic Message Signs (DMS). 

Now the storms have passed, and it is time to support those affected by hurricanes Harvey and Irma, including our ATSSA members who are working to rebuild what was damaged or lost. 

For years now, ATSSA has been writing, creating and providing exceptional roadway safety research and case studies booklets to its membership – at no cost – as a unique benefit to help ATSSA members explain their lifesaving products to help save lives and ultimately maximize their business opportunities.
