Recommended Project Fact Sheets 
Following the selection of the top 6 project locations, safety improvement recommendations were developed 
for each location using the Engineering Countermeasures Toolkit presented earlier in the SAP. 
Project fact sheets were developed for each of the six locations and are included in Appendix B. The fact 
sheets summarize the crash data analysis, public input, and selected engineering countermeasures with their 
benefits. The draft project sheets were reviewed by City staff for input related to engineering judgment and site-
specific knowledge. The fact sheets provide a concise summary of each  priority project location for ease of 
reference in future funding and project programming opportunities. 
Progress and Transparency 
The City of Athens SAP recommends a set of actions that will support the successful implementation and 
monitoring of the recommended projects and strategies.  
Task Force Implementation and Monitoring 
It is recommended that a subset of the Steering Committee reconvene in the future as an Athens Safety Task 
Force to direct the SAP implementation, monitoring, and future progress. The Task Force can consist of Public 
Works staff, other City of Athens departments, Athens Police Department, other local emergency service 
providers, key McMinn County staff, key TDOT staff, other adjacent communities, and other stakeholders as 
needed. It is recommended that this group convene annually after the adoption of the Athens SAP to review 
the latest available crash data trends, engineering project completion pro gress, and driver -related strategy 
performance measures. The Task Force will discuss opportunities to build upon the plan to address any 
changing crash trends alongside community needs, new technologies, and additional resources available to 
assist in implementation. 
Public Posting of the Athens SAP 
Upon completion and adoption, this plan will be 
made public on a dedicated project website and the 
City’s website. It is recommended the project 
website be maintained to update the public with new 
crash data trends and the implementation status of 
accomplishments.
