Background

Boulder County has partnered with Lafayette and Superior to develop Vision Zero Action Plans to improve transportation safety throughout Boulder County. Vision Zero is a strategy and commitment to eliminate all serious injury and fatal traffic crashes.

Funded through a federal Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant, the project team is undertaking a detailed analysis of traffic crashes and risk factors and developing specific recommendations to improve transportation safety in the coming years. Three Vision Zero Action Plans will be developed through this effort. The Boulder County VZAP area will include unincorporated Boulder County as well as Jamestown, Nederland, and Ward.

In addition to determining locations with a significant history of severe crashes and those with high risk factors, the VZAP project team is engaging with residents and visitors to learn about their transportation safety concerns.
