SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: National Traffic Incident Management Annual Self-Assessment
(TIMSA).
Background: Each of the over 6 million crashes per year presents a
safety danger to motorists and responders while often causing delays on
the nation's roads. It is critical to safety and mobility for these
crashes to be mitigated as efficiently and safely as possible. To
address these concerns, dozens of Traffic Incident Management (TIM)
Programs have been established throughout the country over the past 25-
30 years. Most of the top 75 metropolitan areas and several rural areas
have some form of TIM Program, often coordinated through a multi-
disciplinary committee comprised of all the response disciplines. The
TIMSA tool was established to help regions assess the level of TIM
Program maturity and to identify areas for improvement.
The information is used by each jurisdiction to better understand
opportunities for improving safety and mobility in their region. The
FHWA also uses the data to assess progress of the FHWA national TIM
program and identify opportunities to help regions improve.
Respondents: Approximately 100 individuals will complete the
questionnaire in collaboration with an estimated average of 5 other
participants.
Frequency: Annually.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: Approximately 1-2 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 200.
Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of
this information collection, including: (1) whether the proposed
collection is necessary for FHWA's performance; (2) the accuracy of the
estimated burdens; (3) ways for FHWA to enhance the quality,
usefulness, and clarity of the collected information; and (4) ways that
the burden could be minimized, including the use of electronic
technology, without reducing the quality of the collected information.
The agency will summarize or include your comments in the request for
OMB's clearance of this information collection.
Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. Chapter
35, as amended.
Issued On: September 15, 2023.
