Vision Zero Los Angeles | Page 16

VISION ZERO GOALS 1 Reduce citywide traffic deaths by 20 percent by 2017, prioritizing pedestrian deaths involving older adults and children 2 Eliminate traffic deaths citywide by 2025 To make zero traffic deaths a reality, we plan to employ every tool at our disposal. Mayor Eric Garcetti’s Executive Directive No. 10, Vision Zero, directs all City departments to collaborate and coordinate their actions to improve safety on our streets and sidewalks. We will also be reaching out to partner with other Vision Zero cities throughout the country to learn from and share best practices. However, the work of government alone will not be enough to bring about the necessary changes. Vision Zero Los Angeles is a collaborative effort, and we look forward to partnering with the community to build support and accountability around our vision for safer streets.
