Through the Safe Streets and Roads for All Safety Action Plan, RTC will identify transportation focused safety needs and improvements across Clark County
VANCOUVER – The Southwest Washington Regional Transportation Council (RTC) wants to hear from people in Clark County about making our streets safer. Through the Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) Safety Action Plan, RTC will identify transportation focused safety needs and improvements across Clark County.
The key goal for the plan is to try to eliminate fatal and serious injury crashes by 2030 for people walking, biking, rolling, and driving. The plan will help RTC officials better understand current trends, policies, and needs through data analysis and community input,then apply for grant funding to improve safety where it is needed most.
This is the second virtual open house for the project, and it will run until Dec. 20. Community members can find the virtual open house at the online project webpage: https://rtc.wa.gov/studies/sap/ The online open house will allow community members to participate by weighing in on programmatic solutions and location specific solutions across the county.
For questions related to the RTC Safety Action Plan development or to request updates about this project you can reach out to Jennifer Campos at Jennifer.Campos@rtc.wa.gov or (564) 397-5213.
