The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has prepared the Traffic Incident Management (TIM) newsletter for July 2024, and understands the TIM program saves the lives of road users, improves travel reliability and resiliency on roadways, and increases operational efficiencies for incident response organizations. They also know there are too many deaths on our roadways. In 2024, more than 20 responders have been struck and killed while managing roadway incidents. Thus, this newsletter spotlights funding, engagement, and outreach to turn the tide of roadway crashes and fatalities.
