• Abstract:
  NYC has implemented a 5-year approach (2014-2019) to achieve Vision Zero that incorporates “Complete Streets” design, outreach, enforcement, legislation, and informational campaigns. Key to successful implementation has been the cooperation and integration of efforts between various city departments and State agencies. These include the New York City Department of Citywide Administrative Services (DCAS), the New York City Department of Transportation (NYCDOT), the New York City Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC), the New York City Police Department (NYPD), the District Attorney’s Offices for the five counties located in New York City, the New York City Law Department, the New York City Office of Management and Budget, and the State-run Metropolitan Transit Authority. In 2016, the city spent $160 million to implement Vision Zero. Following are some of the key activities and achievements.
