Demonstration Projects Show Vision Zero
​in Action


As Vision Zero planning takes place, demonstration projects will be used to test potential solutions and provide residents hands-on (or feet or wheels on) ways to experience safety improvements. The projects are intended to generate public awareness and conversation and inform guidelines and design for the City to use moving forward.

Three demonstration projects will be tested during the Vision Zero planning process.   Sites will be selected with several factors in mind including:
  • ability to test a variety of treatments in different types of roadway conditions, 
  • history of neighborhood concerns relayed to the city regarding roadway safety, and
  • high incidents of crashes.

​Evaluation:  what is the impact?

To evaluate the impact of the temporary installation, travel speeds before the demonstration project will be compared to travel speeds during the demonstration project.

Traffic Speed Before the Demonstration Project
The two reports below are automatically generated by the City 's speed monitoring equipment and captured seven days of data prior to the installation of the demonstration project. One report provides numbers for the east-bound lane and the other report is for the west-bound lane. During this time period, the average speed for all classified vehicles was 26 MPH eastbound and 28 MPH westbound.
