Is the High Risk Rural Roads safety provision dedicated exclusively to rural roads?
Yes. The Federal Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) includes the High Risk Rural Roads (HR3) Program as a set aside for construction and operational improvements to address safety problems and opportunities on High Risk Rural Roads. This set aside of $90 million nationwide each fiscal year for high-risk rural roads is limited to roadways functionally classified as a rural major or minor collector or as a rural local road.
