The Alaska Highway Safety Office (AHSO) is responsible for administering the Federally funded State and community Highway Safety program, which was established in 1966 to reduce motor vehicle crashes and the resulting injuries and fatalities prompted by unsafe behaviors. Under this mandate states identify their most critical traffic safety problems and annually develop Highway Safety Plans (HSP) that provide a framework for creating a safe, more efficient transportation system. Highway Safety Plans include clearly articulated goals and objectives that link to performance measures and targets established through data analysis and stakeholder input. The endgame, as outlined in Alaska's HSP, is to move toward zero deaths on the State's roadways by annually reducing serious injuries and fatalities.
