Safe Streets Save Lives – We can do this together: Our neighbors, friends, and family often use other modes of transportation for various reasons, and we must ensure safe travel for all!

MetroPlan’s goal is to make the Flagstaff Region’s streets safer for all who use them, especially those who are the most vulnerable – people who walk, bicycle, and roll. This plan builds on the work of the Regional Transportation Safety Plan, Regional Transportation Plan, Active Transportation Masterplan (City of Flagstaff), and the statewide transportation safety plans from the Arizona Department of Transportation.

The VRU Safety Plan will identify crash trends, risk factors, high-crash locations, emphasis areas, establish regional performance measures, and potential projects, programs, and policies that will lead our region to zero fatalities and serious injuries.
 

MetroPlan supports the elimination of traffic fatalities and serious injuries and will adopt a “Vision Zero” policy as part of its Vulnerable Road Users Safety Action Plan.
 

MetroPlan will be out and about in the community working with individuals, community organizations, and jurisdictional partners this Summer to engage and collect feedback for the plan. Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, or sign up below to stay informed!

As a member of our community, you have valuable experience and great ideas about the future of Transportation Safety – we want to hear them.

We believe that roads and streets are for everyone. We all must travel and how we get there shouldn’t disproportionately expose us to traffic collisions that result in serious injuries or fatalities.

 

Vulnerable Road Users are identified as people who walk, bicycle, scooter, or use mobility devices (such as wheelchairs) and are defined as vulnerable with regard to their degree of protection in traffic or their degree of mobility, such as the young, the elderly, and people with disabilities or special needs.

This planning project is funded by the FHWA Safe Streets for All (SS4A) Competitive Grant Program
