In line with Assembly Bill (AB) 43, the City will develop a comprehensive speed-management plan that identifies areas on the high-injury network where speed is the leading collision factor and work to identify high pedestrian/bicyclist activity that would benefit from lower speed limits. The goal of the plan would be to reduce speed limits across the City through complementary tools such as education, outreach and traffic calming.
The City was selected by the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) for a grant to create safe streets for all Americans. The Safe Streets and Roads for All Grant Program(SS4All) supports regional, local, and Tribal initiatives through competitive grants to prevent roadway deaths and serious injuries.
The $680,000 investment will help the City add a Comprehensive Speed Management Plan, Historically Disadvantaged Community Quick Build Program, and Slow Streets Program to the City's existing Vision Zero Strategy.
