BMCMPO Crash Data
- BMCMPO staff collaborated with the City of Bloomington GIS Department to create the Bloomington-Monroe County Crash Data Dashboard, which includes locations of crashes that occurred in all jurisdictions of Monroe County. The data is sourced from the Indiana State Police crash data repository and BMCMPO and GIS staff review and clean up the data on an annual basis.
- BMCMPO's memo summarizing calendar year 2025 crash data for the entirety of Monroe County, was shared with BMCMPO committees in May 2026.
Other Crash Information
- Monroe County Government's Highway Department publishes crash reports that reflect crash-related data for the Monroe County Government jurisdiction.
- Bloomington Police Department Accident Reports
- The Indiana University Public Policy Institute (PPI) collaborates with the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute's (ICJI) Traffic Safety Division to analyze annual crash data and assist with the State of Indiana’s policy-making process. They publish annual crash fact books, county-level data summaries, and topical fact sheets.
- The Indiana State Police maintains the central repository of all crash reports for the State of Indiana. As part of its contract with Indiana State Police (ISP), LexisNexis Risk Solutions provides ARIES to state and local governments free of charge and charges a small fee for crash records and research requests.
- The Indiana Department of Transportation's Office of Traffic Safety administers traffic safety programs that strive to meet state and federal safety goals of reducing the risk of death, or serious injury resulting from traffic crashes. Traffic Safety works to reduce the frequency and severity of crashes for all users of Indiana’s streets, roads, and highways on both the state highway system and local roads.
- Indiana’s Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP) is a federally required statewide, comprehensive safety plan that provides a coordinated framework around which safety stakeholders can unite to reduce highway fatalities and serious injuries on all public roads. The Indiana’s SHSP is data-driven and establishes the goals, objectives, and strategies to advance the vision of zero fatalities and serious injuries. The SHSP, as required by title 23 U.S.C. § 148, identifies critical highway safety problems and opportunities for saving lives, reducing suffering, and economic losses resulting from traffic crashes. It also serves to coordinate the traffic safety activities of state agencies, municipal entities and private highway safety organizations. Indiana continually evaluates and periodically revises the SHSP.
- Indiana’s Vulnerable Road User (VRU) assessment, required by the federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), examines the safety challenges faced by road users categorized as vulnerable, such as bicyclists, pedestrians, micro-mobility users, and other users of non-motorized vehicles (i.e., horse drawn conveyance).
