Safety is our highest priority at the core of all our work at SRPEDD.
We believe that every person in every community within our region deserves to get around safely, regardless of how they travel. Many transportation related crashes, injuries, and deaths are preventable. We commit ourselves to working with our member communities to eliminate as many of those incidents in our region as possible.
At the regional level, we use data driven methods to identify problem areas along our regions roadways. We then provide innovative solutions to address those problems while keeping the specific needs of our communities in mind.
At the local level, we are also available to help assess safety concerns in your community through our community technical assistance program. We can help your community to:
- Conduct Road & Intersection Safety Audits to address problems like lane departure crashes & red light running
- Implement traffic calming strategies into existing and newly developed plans
- Aide with access management and ADA compliance
- Assist with assessing safety needs of the most at-risk and vulnerable populations in your community
- Help determine appropriate traffic control device implementation
- Connecting your community leaders with available state and federal resources
- Assess and improve the resiliency of your community’s transportation system
