Even good drivers make mistakes.

The Safe System Approach starts with a simple reality: People are human. People make mistakes.

Road Safety Advocates learn why roadway design, maintenance, operations, education, enforcement, and emergency response all work together to reduce serious crashes.

Safer roads for YOUR loved ones don't have to depend on perfect people.

You know what happens Tuesday? Pumpkin Spice.

Maybe it won’t be obvious for a week, or two, max... but it’s there, lurking in the shadows of less daylight.

And somewhere between Pumpkin Spice and Turkey Dinner, the first flakes are likely to fall.

Are you ready?

Join us September 9th for Winter Ready? A Preseason Checklist & Open Forum; a one-hour virtual check-in for NH DPW Directors, Road Agents, Highway Superintendents, and others responsible for municipal winter operations.

We’ll take stock of winter readiness, talk through what may still need attention, and hear what’s keeping you up at night as the days get shorter.

Come to take notes, ask questions, share what’s working in your community, and learn from others across the state.

Wednesday, September 9 | 10:00–11:00 a.m. | Virtual

Rounding out August with some fantastic workshops! Participants explored culvert installation and maintenance, roadway safety, ADA and pedestrian accessibility, and best practices through Certified Culvert Maintainer recertification.

From protecting infrastructure and improving drainage to enhancing roadway safety and accessibility, these trainings provided practical tools and real-world insights that participants can apply in their communities every day, helping build stronger, safer, and more resilient communities across New Hampshire.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to these successful sessions!

Think only transportation professionals can impact roadway safety?

Think again.

Local safety decisions happen every day in town offices, schools, police departments, public works garages, planning boards, hospitals, and emergency services.

If your work influences how SAFELY people can travel through your community, then you belong in the conversation.

Kinda chic to improve roadway safety as part of the day-to-day work!

Tuesday's Road Safety 365 class focused on “reading the road” for safety opportunities. After a short classroom intro, we boarded the bus and rode the roads, practicing how to spot things like faded or blocked signs, pavement markings, curve conditions, skid marks and other clues that can help us identify and address risk. Then it was back to the classroom to talk through what we saw.

Roadway safety isn’t any one town’s “issue.” Fatal and serious crashes happen across New Hampshire- on state and local roads, in cities and small towns. Every DPW and highway staff member, in every community, can be part of saving lives by learning to read the road for safety and recognizing opportunities to make it safer through the work they already do.

Thank you to NH Department of Transportation for hosting us, and to the several New Hampshire communities that joined us for Road Safety 365 and brought their experience, observations and ideas to the conversation.

Great work, Salem DPW! Masters of salt!

Alright NH municipalities... who's next??😁❄

Congratulations to the Town of Salem, NH on receiving Municipal Green SnowPro Certification! Municipal Green SnowPro is a voluntary certification program that recognizes municipalities in the state that are working towards reducing their winter salt application and preventing increasing concentrations of chlorides in surface water and groundwater in their communities. Municipal Green SnowPro certification requires comprehensive training, detailed documentation, and winter salt reduction best management practices to improve water quality while maintaining a high level of public safety.

Knowing your community is a little safer is even better.

The road you help make safer probably won't make the evening news. The crash that never happens won't make headlines. The families that travel your community’s roads safely probably won’t nominate you for a national award.

And that's exactly the point.

Road safety isn't about recognition. It's about coming together as a community to save lives, to help people get home safely, day after day.

Because some of the most important work is the work no one ever has to notice.

If you care about making rural and local roads safer, the NH Roads Scholar Road Safety Advocate Program can give you the knowledge, tools, and perspective to help make a difference. Register for the NH Road Safety Advocate Program series of 8 no cost webinars. Visit https://t2.unh.edu/programs/rsap
