UDD Role: Community Engagement & Outreach
Vision Zero is a strategy focused on eliminating traffic fatalities and severe injuries, while increasing safe, healthy, and equitable mobility for all. UDD worked with the City of Fresno to coordinate an outreach and engagement strategy and performed Walk Audits along the Blackstone corridor, a key arterial avenue targeted for pedestrian-friendly improvements.
According to the Vision Zero Network, over 40,000 people are killed each year on American streets, and hundreds of thousands more are injured. Every fatal or serious collision is not just a statistic – they are our friends, family, and neighbors. A Vision Zero approach sees these traffic deaths as preventable.
