This article insert briefly describes the Roadside Safety Analysis Program (RSAP), which was developed to update and enhance the cost-effectiveness analysis algorithms and procedures of the ROADSIDE software package included in the "Roadside Design Guide," published by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO). Version 3 of RSAP (RSAPv3) will soon be available. As the benefit-cost tool for the 2011 edition of the "Roadside Design Guide," RSAPv3 assists in performing roadside safety economic analyses and serves as an alternative to the warranting approach also included in the guide.
