Have you ever felt unsafe walking or biking on a roadway in Louisville? Tell us about any "close call" you've had using this revamped survey we created. We'll use this data to inform our decisions moving forward https://t.co/G5hVNeh56j

@MichaelMobility @gggrlck @KYTCDistrict5 @ktyc @MichaelMobility I’m not sure about 311 routing. Were they funded by Council District 8? Was there a maintenance agreement for the project?

[Vision Zero Louisville @VisionZero_Lou]

You love to see it! @KYTC nixed an off-ramp slip lane in favor of a safer design that discourages speeding and improves pedestrian safety. I-264 & Taylor Blvd.

[Vision Zero Louisville @VisionZero_Lou]

Presenting on Vision Zero at the annual Kentucky Lifesavers Conference. Thanks @KYTC for the opportunity!

[Vision Zero Louisville @VisionZero_Lou]

Thanks @EsriBlog for the opportunity to showcase our work! @LouPubWorks recently won a Special Achievement in GIS Award from @Esri for Vision Zero Louisville's maps and visualizations.

When the #VisionZero Louisville Ordinance passed, city staff analyzed crash and roadway design to map high-risk locations, finding higher rates in disadvantaged areas. https://t.co/C0uY5tdsvj

Reporting by ⁦@wave3news⁩ today regarding Vision Zero Louisville’s first annual report. https://t.co/FWNhnFLo5X

[Vision Zero Louisville @VisionZero_Lou]

Vision Zero Louisville released its first annual report today! "We must do everything in our power to make our roads safer for everyone, regardless of how you travel." @LouisvilleMayor Read the report at https://t.co/uEiraQXVO2.

[Vision Zero Louisville @VisionZero_Lou]

Thanks @louequity for producing a policy brief on automated enforcement! Automated enforcement is illegal in KY, but some state legislators are working to change that to make our roadways safer. https://t.co/GP4bBbq3RE

[Vision Zero Louisville @VisionZero_Lou]

@allvowels Agreed re: Main St curb cut. Asked for it to be removed. No word yet on final verdict.

[Vision Zero Louisville @VisionZero_Lou]

@robmolou @LouPubWorks A bike facility on Longfield was proposed in the last Bike Louisville Master Plan several years ago. And a resident on Longfield has been asking for more sidewalks too.

Louisville Metro Government was awarded a $21M Safe Streets and Roads for All implementation grant to improve safety on 10 corridors in Louisville! The grant will be matched for a total of nearly $27M. For more information, visit: https://t.co/FJO2nA9V4O

[U.S. Department of Transportation @USDOT]

We're announcing funding for 500+ projects nationwide to improve safety & save lives along America's roadways.

Our investment will fund safety planning & implementation for over half the nation's population — supporting our vision of ZERO roadway deaths. https://t.co/6GQv2j6kut

Our first TPC Meeting of this year is next Thursday. It is a packed agenda with several key items including planning updates for 2050, Active Transportation Plan, and Safe Streets for All Grant. Meeting info can be found at: https://t.co/maQamvF4Jf

[Vision Zero Louisville @VisionZero_Lou]

@Streets4Peeps Thanks. Just passed it along to Bike Louisville.

[Vision Zero Louisville @VisionZero_Lou]

State Rep. Rachel Roarx introduced House Bill 73 to legalize automated enforcement in Kentucky. Roarx will discuss her bill at the next VZL Task Force meeting this Friday. https://t.co/1SHsuNZa19

[Vision Zero Louisville @VisionZero_Lou]

@Streets4Peeps @BroaddusTrey Sustainability’s Cool Roof incentive program has been very successful. Please contact your Metro Council member and let them know you want to see an e-bike incentive program funded in next year’s budget. Budget discussions are happening NOW.

[Vision Zero Louisville @VisionZero_Lou]

@Streets4Peeps @BroaddusTrey Agreed! After it was brought up in our Dec. Task Force meeting, Bike Louisville is now looking into it. https://t.co/GeHOTB0o8R

[Vision Zero Louisville @VisionZero_Lou]

Safer Speeds is a pillar of the Safe System approach. Reducing Metro-owned roads to 35 MPH is a first step.

[Courier Journal @courierjournal]

Since 2014, over 900 people have died on non-interstate roads in Louisville, including 185 pedestrians, according to officials. https://t.co/Oc9refIh49

[Vision Zero Louisville @VisionZero_Lou]

@allvowels Best practice is a 1-month trailing approach. If someone goes to the hospital and dies within 30 days of a crash, it is attributed to the crash per MMUCC. So Dec 2022 will be available early Feb 2023.
