Safe Streets. Safe Speeds. Safe Vehicles. Safe People.
Let’s come together to create safe travel for everyone.
Safe streets are the foundation of a livable region.
When people step out their front door, they expect and deserve a safe way to get where they're going, whether it's walking or bicycling in the neighborhood, getting to transit, or driving down a highway.
In the last 5 years (2017-2021), the Flagstaff region had over 10,000 crashes that led to 3,450 serious injuries and 62 deaths. The Regional Transportation Safety Plan will provide a regionally-focused, data-driven framework for increasing traffic safety on roadways in the greater Flagstaff region. The Plan focuses on strategies and actions drawn from best practices proven to reduce traffic-related deaths and serious injuries. Our vision is zero. Share it.
SHARED ROADS. SHARED RESPONSIBILITY.
Safe travel for all embraces the guiding principle that serious traffic crashes are preventable, and that no death or severe injury is acceptable. Together we will use strategies that are equitable, data-driven, and collaborative as steps to reducing or eliminating severe traffic injuries and deaths in our region.
SAFE STREETS SAVE LIVES - WE CAN DO THIS TOGETHER
MetroPlan is our region’s transportation planning agency. We’re made up of partners from across Northern Arizona who work alongside residents like you, to create a safe and convenient transportation system for our region. Through a combination of safer street design, evidence-based public policy, thoughtful public engagement, and participation from our community, we can ensure the streets of Flagstaff and neighboring communities are safe for everyone.
As a member of our community, you have valuable experiences and great ideas about improving transportation safety – we want to hear them. We will listen to you, consult with you, involve you, and collaborate with you.
Here’s how:
IN-PERSON EVENTS
While online surveys and virtual meetings are a great way to engage with us, MetroPlan recognizes that not everyone has the same access to online resources. That’s why MetroPlan will be attending community events in 2023, so we can hear directly from you!
ONLINE SURVEYS
We need your help digging into the safety issues that matter most to you. Survey 1 is closed! Thank you for particpating.
SUBMIT A COMMENT
In planning for a safer transportation system, we ask you to think about the roadways, transit, bicycling, walking, and rolling as it relates to transportation safety, equity, and the environment. Share your experiences, ideas, and priorities with us by using the comment form below or email David Wessel at david.wessel@metroplanflg.org. Your input will lead to a better future for all.
The Regional Transportation Safety Plan is an update to the 2018 Regional Strategic Transportation Safety Plan. This anticipates completion in December 2023. We will be seeking public and stakeholder input throughout the process. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram for upcoming public events, surveys, plan updates, and more!
