Who Are We?

The Community Traffic Safety Program is a multi-disciplined Federal, State and Local Government endorsed program developed to reduce the number of traffic crashes that occur on Florida roadways. The program was created in response to federal legislation (the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1990), which calls for local participation, and solutions to traffic crashes, injuries and fatalities on local roadways.

Our membership consists of professionals in four disciplines: Law Enforcement, Engineering, Emergency Services and Education. We possess the resources and skills to directly impact the epidemic problems that Florida faces on our roadways.

Armed with carefully developed missions, goals and objectives, the Committee undertake projects and activities and serve as a resource to any and all communities, local government agencies and roadway users to assist in the reduction of traffic crashes and the related injuries and fatalities on our roadways.
