The grant supports the Utah Traffic Records Coordinating Committee (UTRCC) and Utah Crash Information Management System (UTAPS) in improving the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, uniformity, accessibility, and integration of Utah's core highway safety databases. Specifically, the UTRCC—composed of representatives from Utah's crash, citation, injury surveillance, driver, and vehicle record systems—will conduct a traffic records assessment with NHTSA, update Utah's traffic records strategic plan, and finalize changes to Utah's crash report. UTAPS will focus on enhancing the timeliness, accuracy, and completeness of traffic records and integrating roadway and citation data. Both sub-awardees will report on progress quarterly and at the end of each year.
