Action Alert: Stop Deaths on Our Streets
Nearly 50 pedestrians and cyclists are killed on San Diego streets each year. The City has pledged to end traffic deaths, but these numbers are not budging. In just one week in late October, two children were killed in separate crashes. By maintaining the status quo, the City is choosing to allow this trend to continue. It is time for the City to take bold action and make significant investments in safety infrastructure.
The Vision Zero Coalition has called on our elected officials to take action and fund road safety to stop deaths on our streets. The City has not answered this call. This year, the Coalition is again asking the City to:
- Fix the Fatal 15 Intersections, where people are most at risk;
- Paint curbs red to daylight intersections and improve visibility; and
- Slow speeds near school zones, so children can arrive at school safely.
Join the Vision Zero Coalition in urging Mayor Todd Gloria and the San Diego City Council to dedicate funding towards making our streets safer. When the consequence is death, inaction is not an option.
