About This Study
What
H-GAC, in partnership with Waller County, is developing the Waller County Safety Action Plan (SAP) — a comprehensive road safety plan that identifies projects, programs, and policies to eliminate traffic fatalities and serious injuries.
The Waller County 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 Waller County 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 Waller County SAP covers roadways within Waller County. The crash density map below shows the locations of crashes from 2018-2024.
