October is National #PedestrianSafety Month, and we’re spreading the word to ensure America’s transportation systems are walking-safe. Each week, we’ll be sharing facts and best practices to promote:

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦Safer People
🛣️Safer Speeds & Roads
🚘Safer Vehicles
🏥Post-Crash Care

Your mid-week reminder:

[Vision Zero CLE @VisionZeroCLE]

Japan is leading in traffic safety. How did they do it?
🔶Mode shift with fast and safe trains
🔶Smaller + fewer vehicles on streets
🔶Design with the most vulnerable in mind

[Families For Safe Streets @NYC_SafeStreets]

Mark your Calendar for Nov. 20th: World Day of Remembrance for victims of traffic violence.

Who are you remembering and how are you pledging to act in your community this year? Now is the time to start planning your demonstration. #WDoR2022 https://t.co/vbeBWHjfIc

People on bicycles have the same rights and responsibilities as people behind the wheel of a vehicle.

Give cyclists room. Do not pass too closely. Pass bicyclists as you would any other vehicle—when it’s safe to move over into an adjacent lane.

[Vision Zero CLE @VisionZeroCLE]

We are very excited to see infrastructure that helps protect people riding bikes!

If we want to see more people using non-motorized modes of transportation, we must make sure people feel safe and comfortable.

[Bike Cleveland @Bike_CLE]

9 years ago we advocated for the buffered section of the Detroit Avenue bike lane to be protected with posts. Today it finally happened! Thanks to @ohiocitytweets and @NOACA_MPO. Drop in the comments where this needs to happen next.

[Bike Cleveland @Bike_CLE]

Join us this Thursday morning at 8:30am for our annual Ride for Sylvia. This ride is in memory of Sylvia Bingham and all cyclists who have been injured or killed on Cleveland's roads while biking.

As of August 30th, 34 members of our community have died this year on Cleveland roadways.

We will continue to work towards the only acceptable number: zero.

Car crashes are a leading cause of injury in children. Buckling kids in appropriate car seats, booster seats, & seat belts reduce serious + fatal injuries by up to 80%.

We agree, @mattm178! Safer streets are healthier, more welcoming, more equitable and more accessible!

Vision Zero often goes hand in hand with other initiatives and we look forward to working together.

Driving while distracted puts yourself and other road users in danger. Don't even put yourself in a position to get distracted my phones!
🛑 Put your phone away
🛑 Program the GPS before you go
🛑 Ask passengers for help

If you notice glass, debris, or other safety hazards in bike lanes, call the @CityofCleveland's 3-1-1 answering service. You're doing yourself and your fellow cyclists a favor. An operator is there to assist weekdays during business hours.

[Vision Zero CLE @VisionZeroCLE]

This summer, @CityofCleveland launched a residential speed table pilot. The City also deployed radar speed feedback signs to raise awareness of speeding on residential streets.

#ICYMI Some very exciting infrastructure was laid on our roads yesterday!

Speed tables force drivers to slow down and this will save lives. Thank you to @CleCityCouncil and @CityofCleveland for investing in the safety for all road users!

[City of Cleveland @CityofCleveland]

Today, the first speed table was installed as part of a pilot traffic calming initiative to slow traffic in neighborhoods across the city and stop speeding in common crash areas.
