Vision Zero Action Plan
Between 2009 and 2015, 151 people lost their lives on Sacramento’s streets. On January 19, 2017, the City Council issued a call to action by adopting a resolution with the following goal:
The City of Sacramento will work collaboratively in a data-driven effort to eliminate traffic fatalities and serious injuries by 2027.
To help reach this goal, the City developed an Action Plan based on a data driven process. The Plan uses crash data to pinpoint the factors contributing to traffic deaths and serious injuries, and it identifies proven safety countermeasures to address those factors through education, engineering, enforcement, and evaluation. The Vision Zero Action Plan was developed in partnership with key stakeholders through a Vision Zero Task Force.
On August 14, 2018, City Council Adopted the Vision Zero Action Plan as the City's action plan for traffic safety and achieving Resolution No. 2017-0032 goal to eliminate traffic fatalities and serious injuries by 2027.
