WHEREAS, the first Monday in September is an annual holiday to recognize the economic and social contributions of American workers; and

WHEREAS, Snohomish County recognizes the valuable and varied contributions of workers, without whom our businesses, public agencies, nonprofits, and other organizations could not function; and
WHEREAS, the labor movement and labor organizations have historically advocated for the rights of laborers, and continue to do so to this day; and
WHEREAS, Snohomish County employs more than 3,500 people in a variety of vital positions that provide foundational public services, and those employees are the most valuable resource we have to meet the obligations of county government and the needs of growing community; and

Have you taken the Road Safety Action Plan survey yet? Don’t miss your chance to provide input on where #SnoCoPW prioritizes safety improvements. https://t.co/w1lQ97mxV0

[Snohomish County Public Works @SnoCoPW]

No one wants to be in a traffic crash, especially not one that results in serious injuries or death. But that is exactly what happens hundreds of times each year on roadways throughout unincorporated Snohomish County.

#SnoCoPW wants to reverse this trend by developing a Road Safety Action Plan to identify priorities and projects that are specific and actionable, establishing clear steps for how the county will move toward the goal of eliminating traffic fatalities and serious injuries.

[Snohomish County Public Works @SnoCoPW]

Odds are that every person in Snohomish County will be in at least one vehicle crash in their lifetime. These crashes can be costly, leading to serious injury or even death for something as simple as running an errand or driving home from work.

#SnoCoPW is committed to the goal of eliminating traffic fatalities and serious injuries by developing a Road Safety Action Plan. But we need your help! Share your experiences through the Road Safety Program Online Open House and help make an impact. https://t.co/D6zwFAfzby
