Since 2020, Vision Zero Madison has implemented safety improvement projects and speed management projects every year to further safe travel on City streets. These projects focus on Proven Safety Countermeasures like high visibility crosswalks, green bike markings, rapid flashing beacon lights, and increased signal visibility, as well as lowering speed limits across the city in high injury zones.
“Vision Zero is all about prioritizing safety for all roadway users no matter what type of travel. Whether you are driving, walking, biking, rolling or taking public transit, every person has the right to travel safely across our City.” said Mayor Satya Rhodes-Conway. “Vision Zero strives to improve our streets and prevent serious and fatal crashes. While each of these projects may be small, they add up to a big impact, and a safer city.”
