We are calling on the City to establish its own Vision Zero safety checklist of street design standards which must be followed when a road is reconstructed or repaired, and during active road construction projects. All road projects should also use accessibility as a baseline design requirement to ensure they will work for people with disabilities. In all construction zones that occupy road or sidewalk space, a safety checklist should include creating temporary bike lanes, sidewalks and safe detour routes, rather than obstructing safe infrastructure for people walking or riding bikes without providing safe alternatives.
