Safe Streets for All: Transportation Safety Action Plan

The City of Saint Paul is developing a Transportation Safety Action Plan to identify and eliminate fatalities and serious injuries from vehicle crashes for everyone (pedestrians, bicyclists, transit users, and drivers).

With community input, this plan will prioritize roadway and infrastructure projects that address safety challenges for residents of Saint Paul and support future funding opportunities for safety projects.

The plan will center the people and communities most affected by traffic-related injuries and fatalities—including pedestrians, bicyclists, and people in historically underserved communities—to improve safety for all users.

Why this matters

Once completed, actions and projects identified in this plan will help eliminate traffic crashes and address issues like reckless and distracted driving and high traffic speeds. We need your help to understand your safety challenges.

Your input is critical to our success and will determine which transportation safety projects to prioritize.
