Safety Action Plan
The City of Chillicothe is partnering with American Structurepoint Inc. to develop a Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) Safety Action Plan; a proactive, data-driven roadmap to make local streets safer and more accessible for everyone.
Making Chillicothe's streets safer for everyone who uses them was a recurring theme throughout the transportation goals of 2023's Choose Chillicothe comprehensive planning process, and the Safe Streets for All Comprehensive Safety Action Plan will build on that foundation. The project team is currently conducting an in-depth review of crash data to identify patterns, contributing factors, and locations with the highest safety needs. This analysis will form the foundation for a High-Injury Network (HIN) that highlights corridors and intersections with the greatest potential for improvement.
Get Involved
Your feedback plays a crucial role in shaping safer, more connected streets in Chillicothe. Share your thoughts about traffic safety, walking, biking, and driving conditions across the city.
As the data analysis phase progresses, the team is also engaging residents, businesses, and stakeholders to capture local insights and priorities. This collaboration will guide the development of context-sensitive countermeasures and a phased implementation roadmap—combining near-term “quick-build” projects with long-term capital improvements. Each recommendation will be prioritized by impact, cost, and readiness, and supported by clear budgets, defined roles, funding pathways, and performance metrics to track progress over time.
Ultimately, the Chillicothe SS4A Plan will serve as a council-ready, funding-eligible framework that empowers the community to pursue federal and state safety grants; turning data and dialogue into measurable results on the ground.
Phases
Phase 4: Final Plan & Adoption
The completed SS4A Safety Action Plan will be presented to City Council for review and adoption. Once approved, it will position Chillicothe to apply for federal implementation grants and other funding sources to bring these projects to life.
