Abstract:Vision Zero is a strategy to eliminate all traffic fatalities and serious injuries while increasing safe, healthy, equitable mobility for all. At the time of this report, more than 40 communities across the United States have committed to the Vision Zero strategy. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is committed to eliminating traffic-related fatalities and serious injuries on the Nation’s roadways. One of FHWA’s activities is to provide local communities with technical assistance to aid in reaching their zero deaths vision. The FHWA has assisted in the development of Vision Zero Action Plans (VZAPs) for two communities—City of Daly City (California) and Macon-Bibb County (Georgia). The VZAPs serve as a framework that details goals, objectives, and action items, using the Safe System Approach to the extent possible, to implement the safety programs that will guide each community toward zero fatalities. The Transportation Safety Planning and the Zero Deaths Vision: A Guide for Metropolitan Planning Organizations and Local Communities served as a guiding document in the processes. The purpose of this report is to summarize and generalize the two communities’ plan-development processes. This document draws from Daly City and Macon-Bibb County’s experiences and summarizes the common elements that were applied for developing a VZAP. This report also includes information on opportunities, challenges and lessons learned.
