About the Plan
The Central Virginia Planning District Commission (CVPDC), in partnership with local stakeholders, developed a plan to reduce roadway fatalities and serious injuries for all roadway users in the region. The Central Virginia Safety Action Plan uses data and local input to outline strategies—engineering, education, enforcement, and emergency response—to advance safer streets for all users and transportation modes in the region.
About Safe Streets and Roads for All
Safe Streets and Roads for All was established through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law with $5 billion in appropriated funds for over 5 years (2022 to 2026). The SS4A program funds regional, local, and Tribal initiatives through grants to prevent roadway deaths and serious injuries. Using a Safe System Approach, the SS4A program supports the U.S. Department of Transportation’s goal of zero roadway deaths.
The CVPDC was awarded a Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation to develop a Safety Action Plan, or roadmap to reduce fatal and serious injuries on local roadways. Project consultants EPR, P.C. and Kimley-Horn facilitated data evaluation and local stakeholder input to develop the Central Virginia Safety Action Plan.
Our Project Goal - Make Our Roadways Safer for All Users
Fatalities in the Central Virginia Planning District Commission Region (2018-2023):
Use our Project Dashboard to view roadway accident data by locality, crash type, and severity.
Let's make travel safer for all users on our region's roadways.
- Slow Down. Higher speeds lead to more severe injuries for all road users during a crash.
- Stay Alert. Be aware of other road users, especially pedestrians and cyclists; adjust your driving during severe weather or other events.
- Spread the Word. Tell your family, friends, and colleagues about the planning process.
