The Vision Zero Road Safety Plan was received and approved by Council in September 2019.
As a high-level strategic document, the Road Safety Plan will inform the approach that the City, stakeholders, and community partners consider with road safety. From the City's standpoint it provides guidance on the future road safety measures that can be integrated with active transportation initiatives and incorporated within the multi-year work plans of the Transportation and Public Works Group. These annual work plans will include more detailed information about specific road safety measures, schedule, timing and budget.
In order to evaluate the effectiveness of road safety measures, an annual road safety report that monitors progress and degree of success, will be developed and made available to the public. Since several years of collision data are required after countermeasures have been implemented in order to accurately confirm an improvement, it will be at least five years before the program's overall effectiveness can begin to be evaluated.
