IN RE: COMPREHENSIVE TRAFFIC ENGINEERING PROJECT AND GRANT - TRAFFIC IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION OF
OAKLAND COUNTY
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
This is the second year of a - three year greet under the State Office of Highway Safety
Planning for the Comprehensive Traffic Engineering Project to the Traffic Improvement Association
The TIA is a private, non-profit organization created in 1967 by a committee of public
officials, businessmen and community leaders under the provisions of Act No. 327 of the Public Acts
of 1931.
The purpose of this independent, autonomous, self-governing organization is to promote
traffic safety improvements through encouraging and supporting the traffic safety efforts of public
officials, public organizations, schools and civic and business groups.
inc Oakland County Government has been supportive of this organization by appropriating
$20,000 annually For several years.
Most communities do not have financial resources available or access to free technical
assistance to resolve traffic engineering problems nor do they employ trained traffic engineers.
Most efforts to implement traffic engineering improvements have been un -coordinated and
there is no mechanism for developing a master highway system plan on a County-wide basis.
This crant of 5123,800 is 6.5, or 53,600 lower than last year. It runs from 4/1/76 to
3/30/77 and is full funded by Federal Funds, requiring no County contributions.
These funds ngill be used to continue to employ a full time staff and to obtain technical
expertise on a consulting basis (as per attached schedule) in order to reduce Oakland County's
traffic losses. Oakland County has been the prime sponsor of this grant.
The Finance Committee, by Lawrence R. Pernick, Chairman, recommends the acceptance of the
foregoing report.
