The Vision Zero movement is rapidly gaining momentum across the United States, with a growing list of cities committing to a time-bound goal to eliminate all traffic fatalities. With many action plans focused on areas like engineering and enforcement, how can advocates work with city and state leaders to ensure that the voices of all stakeholders are heard so we can co-create infrastructure improvements and policing strategies that work for everyone? In this webinar, we’ll explore best practices and evolving conversations from the local and national level.   

In this webinar, we will:

• Provide an overview of the Vision Zero concept and its momentum in cities across the United States
• Discuss new and key partnerships between bike/ped advocacy organizations and diverse stakeholders in their communities, including work around racial profiling
• Highlight how advocates and city agencies are moving from adoption to implementation with issues of equity and community engagement in mind
• Identify some of the areas of challenge, including increased enforcement and its potential impact on low-income and communities of color

Our presenters will include:

• (Facilitator) Leah Shahum, Director, Vision Zero Network
• Nicole Ferrara, Executive Director, Walk San Francisco
• Stephanie Knoll, Deputy Director, Bicycle Transportation Alliance; and Noel Mickelberry, Executive Director, Oregon Walks
• Sam Ollinger, Executive Director, BikeSD
