About This Study

What

H-GAC, in partnership with the City of Friendswood, is developing the Friendswood Safety Action Plan (SAP) — a comprehensive road safety plan that identifies projects, programs, and policies to eliminate traffic fatalities and serious injuries.

The Friendswood SAP is one of 12 plans being developed concurrently as part of the broader H-GAC Safety Action Plan project. Together, these plans form a coordinated regional approach to transportation safety across the Houston-Galveston area.


Why

The Houston–Galveston region accounts for nearly 20% of traffic deaths in Texas. Every day, an average of two people are killed and ten people are seriously injured in traffic crashes across the region. The Friendswood Safety Action Plan focuses that regional safety challenge locally, identifying where serious crashes occur and developing strategies to improve safety for all roadway users.


Where

The Friendswood SAP covers roadways within the City of Friendswood. The crash density map below shows the locations of crashes from 2018-2024.
