VISION
ZERO

(Strong Towns)

Mission

Vision Zero is more than a slogan—it's an internationally adopted strategy to eliminate traffic-related deaths and severe injuries while improving safety, health, and mobility for all. SOSNA utilizes this approach to promote safety for every street and sidewalk user by improving street design, access, and following Vision Zero principles.

​

Vision Zero acknowledges that many factors contribute to safe mobility — including roadway design, speeds, behaviors, technology, and policies — and sets clear goals to achieve zero fatalities and severe injuries.

​

Aligned with Strongtowns principles, we focus on fiscally responsible, community-driven growth that builds safer, more resilient neighborhoods. By merging Vision Zero’s safety goals with Strongtowns’ emphasis on human-scale development, we aim to enhance both livability and economic vitality in our community.

Who Should Get Involved
​
​Vision Zero is a multidisciplinary approach, bringing together diverse and necessary stakeholders to address this complex problem. The scope of our work involves traffic calming, bicycle lanes, pedestrian safety and mobility (including ADA accessibility), and public transportation.
 
The Vision Zero Committee has many neighborhood-wide projects for you to join. If you’re interested in improving the walkability and livability of our neighborhood, the Vision Zero Committee is right for you!
