Safety Data Mart for External Users

Our community of users is working together to reduce the number of deaths and serious injuries due to crashes in the State of Illinois. A primary goal of the Safety Data Mart is to provide a single source of information that provides easy, direct access to information for all authorized business users. Five criteria for data are addressed: timeliness, completeness, accuracy, accessibility and data integration.
