“Zero Compromises on Safety for All”

The Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission (SPC), along with the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT), Allegheny County, and the City of Pittsburgh, are furthering their commitment to ending traffic deaths and serious injuries on roads within Allegheny County through a new safety initiative called Vision Zero.

Vision Zero is a proven method of making streets safer. Its goal is to eliminate all fatal and serious injury traffic crashes. Endorsed by the U.S. Department of Transportation, funding has been allocated to more than 1,000 communities across all 50 states to develop Vision Zero programs.

Vision Zero is based on the Safe System Approach, which follows several guiding principles to provide a holistic safety approach for all forms of transportation. Vision Zero incorporates proactive, preventative improvements to roadway design and focuses on enhancing safety for all road users.

Locally, Mayor Gainey made the Vision Zero commitment for Pittsburgh in early 2024, and has started putting the policies and practices in place to eliminate traffic fatalities and serious injuries.

This coordinated planning effort will result in a comprehensive Safety Action Plan for Allegheny County.

The planning team is looking for your input, and have planned a series of public meetings as well as an online survey and mapping tool to gather feedback.
