Vision Zero in Action
This plan also complements the City ’ s ongoing traffic-safety efforts . All City departments are constantly coordinating to deliver projects that improve traffic safety . For example , between 2013 and 2016 , six of the High-Injury Network priority intersections underwent safety improvements and have demonstrated early successes in eliminating traffic deaths and serious injuries . Additionally , the City has secured funding for projects at an additional nine intersections on the High-Injury Network . The table below presents some examples of a larger body of projects that have been completed to improve traffic safety . Check the website as the City continues to provide project updates .
