Vision Zero is a strategy aimed at eliminating all traffic fatalities and severe injuries, while promoting safe and healthy mobility for all.

The 3-Legged Stool Approach highlights the interdisciplinary approach to achieve Vision Zero. It also breaks down the solutions into policies, programs, and projects.

Stakeholder engagement and collaboration are crucial to our planning process. We will conduct engagement activities early and at key junctures throughout the project to:

• Include diverse perspectives and insights
• Identify risks not apparent in the data

Our engagement process will involve stakeholders and the public in decision-making through various methods, including surveys and open houses.

Our safety analysis will utilize five years of crash data (2020-2024) from the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT), along with roadway and land use data. This comprehensive analysis will:

• Identify key crash patterns, trends, and contributing factors leading to fatal and serious injury crashes
• Determine the types of infrastructure, behaviors, and contexts with the greatest impact on safety performance
• Inform policy, infrastructure, and programming improvements for all modes of travel

The action plan will outline specific strategies to address safety challenges and goals in the City of LaFayette. It will include:

• Recommended activities such as engineering standards, new infrastructure, or policy changes
• Identification of responsible agencies or individuals for each activity
• Benchmarks and metrics to target projects, measure progress, and maintain transparency in implementation efforts
