View the City’s Vision Zero Plan

What is Vision Zero KC?

In May 2020, KCMO City Council passed the Vision Zero resolution to eliminate traffic fatalities and serious injuries on our streets by 2030, while increasing safe, healthy, equitable mobility for everyone. 

The Vision Zero Task Force was created to work through the resolution focus areas and start crafting a plan to create safer streets. 

Vision Zero is not necessarily a new concept-- it builds on existing efforts and encourages a fresh look at the way we design, build, evaluate and experience our streets. 

Goals for Vision Zero KC

• Create safer streets for everyone, in all neighborhoods

• Eliminate traffic fatalities and serious injuries by 2030

• Implement low-cost, high-impact pilot projects right off the bat to evaluate outcomes and gather feedback

• Develop a multi-year, comprehensive Vision Zero Action Plan to integrate Vision Zero practices into every aspect of planning, design and engineering

  Community engagement is a major component of making Vision Zero successful. Resident feedback will be one of many inputs the Vision Zero team uses to inform project lists every year.
