Abstract:A Vision Zero Plan provides direction specifically around the vision to eliminate all traffic-related deaths and severe injuries in the community. The purpose of this Guide is to assist communities in developing a Vision Zero Plan. The Guide describes the major steps involved in developing a plan, with an emphasis on best practices. It is also useful for communities looking to update an existing Vision Zero Plan. When updating the plan, this Guide can serve to provide insight into components that could be improved or may not have been included in earlier plans. Foundational elements that contribute to a robust Vision Zero Plan usually include the following: (1) Public participation, which includes stakeholder involvement in development of the plan, and routine activities supporting community engagement. This is covered in Section 1: Involving the Community. (2) Analysis of current conditions and trends, which includes considering safety concerns, available data and other resources, the broader context that affects safety, and relevance to issues identified in other existing plans or initiatives. This is covered in Section 2: Analyzing Current Conditions and Opportunities for Change. (3) Development of plan vision, goals, and objectives and connecting these to actions, responsible parties, time frames to complete the actions, and performance measures to track progress toward achieving objectives and goals. This is covered in Section 3: Developing Evidence-based Metrics and Planning Action. (4) A way to measure implementation of plan action items, which includes outcome indicators. This is covered in Section 4: Evaluating Implementation Progress.
