The Vision Zero Coalition …and growing

Vision Zero Workshop 2 Results DATA, DATA, DATA Fatal & Severe Crashes by Causal Factor Speeding, Intoxication, No lighting, Aggressive Driving, Mid-block, hit & run, vehicle turning errors Percent of Total Fatal & Severe by Crash Mode Auto, Pedestrian, Bicycle, Other Cause of Death by Age and Mode MAPS, MAPS, MAPS Countywide heat maps Severe crashes (all modes) Severe vehicle crashes All bicycle crashes overlaid with severe bicycle crashes All pedestrian crashes overlaid with severe pedestrian crashes Severe motorcycle crashes Severe crashes where no lighting is a factor Severe crashes where aggressive driving is a factor Severe crashes where intoxication is a factor Severe crashes where speed is a factor Top 10% of worst corridors with most severe crashes (which account for 35% of severe crashes) (total of 67 corridors) Zoom-in of each corridor with specific locations of severe crashes and the totals of severe crashes on each in last 5 years Zoom-in heat maps of severe crashes on each corridor

Action Plan Development - One Message Many Voices A third of our roads account for ¾ of the fatal and incapacitating injury crashes. For every fatal crash, there are eight incapacitating injury crashes Between 2012 to 2016, we average 1.2 pedestrian crashes per day, or 8.4 per week, 33 percent of which result in a fatality or incapacitating injury. No lighting is a factor in 39% of fatal pedestrian crashes

Action Plan Development -One Message Many Voices Goal 1: Increase awareness of Vision Zero UNDERWAY Create and sustain a Facebook page to broaden reach of VZ Meet with influential people to recruit support Create an asset map of traffic safety coalitions to share resources & consistent messaging Hold a Tampa Bay Safe Streets Summit NEXT STEPS Develop broad-based marketing with powerful messages Create a speakers-bureau LONGER TERM Incorporate Vision Zero into Neighborhood University Curriculum

Action Plan Development - One Message Many Voices Goal 2: Engage with victims of traffic violence and their families UNDERWAY Create a Families for Safe Streets Chapter NEXT STEPS Hold a press conference with families of victims of traffic violence LONGER TERM Hold a march in remembrance of those who lost their lives to traffic violence Work with media and hospitals to identify methods for learning about the victims Create a webpage or Facebook page remembering “Traffic violence doesn’t discriminate”

Action Plan Development The Future Will Not Be Like the Past Corridors with severe bicycle crashes and no bicycles facilities provided Severe pedestrian crashes where no sidewalks are present Pedestrian and bicycle crashes in which no lighting is a factor (compare to FDOT list of planned lighting improvements to identify places in which lighting is needed) Transit stops with high boardings/alightings and severe pedestrian crashes (to identify transit stops for focused multimodal improvements) Tampa Bay Times, February 1, 2017: “Hillsborough planners take to streets to study pedestrian safety”

Tampa Bay Times, February 1, 2017: “Hillsborough planners take to streets to study pedestrian safety”

Action Plan Development – Future not the Past Goal 1: Change standards to create a safe multimodal transportation system through good design, lighting, and connected facilities SPECIFIC ACTIONS Revisit standards for lighting Revisit standards for crosswalks, sidewalks, bus stop placement, and lighting Create new funding programs to implement modern roundabouts at intersections with high crashes Goal 2: Update policies to develop programs for safe travel conditions and improve multimodal accessibility Provide professional training opportunities Review local & state government policies with a VZ lens Revisit maintenance of traffic policies
