We work on studies to understand and address countywide issues such as transportation safety, speeding, pavement condition, climate vulnerability, human-services transportation, and others.
See the Current Studies section below for our current countywide studies.
Resilient Ways Forward
Resilient Ways Forward is our assessment of climate change and how it affects the transportation system in Dutchess County. Visit the Resilient Ways Forward study website to learn more and find fact sheets, reports, and interactive maps.
Safety Action Plan
Our Safety Action Plan seeks to reduce crashes, especially fatal and serious injury crashes, for all types of transportation, on all public roads in the county. The Safety Action Plan will inform our long-range plan and be designed to enable any municipality within Dutchess County to pursue federal Safe Streets For All (SS4A) implementation funding. See the Safety Action Plan webpage for more information.
Pavement Condition Maps
We receive pavement condition data from New York State for all federal-aid eligible roads in the county, and use this to create maps for each municipality to help prioritize paving needs. See our Publications page for the latest Pavement Condition Maps.
High-End Speeding Reports
Each year, we use our traffic count data to identify County and local roads with high-end speeding, and provide a report with maps and tables to our municipalities, County Public Works, police partners, and Traffic Safety Board. See our Publications page for our High-End Speeding Reports.
