RSCP: Reading the Roadway
TRAINING: July 7, 2026, 1:00PM - 3:30PM PT
RSCP Core Module 6: Reading the Roadway teaches participants how to “read the road” as well as the importance of doing so in daily activities.
The course uses real world examples on different roadway components to demonstrate how participants may be able to uncover potential safety issues during their routine activities. It also discusses how the road safety audit process can be used to “read the road” in a more formal approach. Finally, the training covers the consequences daily activities of workers may have on safety.
This 2.5-hour training is the sixth of seven core modules of the Road Safety Champion Program (RSCP), a nationally recognized “Roadway Safety 101” certification training for professionals in transportation, public health, and first responder agencies. RSCP is open to all staff from transportation, public health, and law enforcement agencies who have an interest in roadway safety but are not safety experts.
