Draft Safety Action Plan Complete

June 1, 2026

The draft safety action plan, Safe by Design: Moving Toward a Transportation Network Built for People, is now available for review.

The plan draws on community input from more than 2,000 participants and crash data across five jurisdictions to establish six regional actions—from shared street design standards to a public safety dashboard—aimed at reducing serious crashes and fatalities across the Richmond region.

The RRTPO Technical Advisory Committee will review the final draft plan at their June 9th meeting.

The RRTPO Policy Board is scheduled to consider adoption this summer.

Thank you to everyone who took part in shaping the update to the regional safety plan.
