VisionZeroATX

Who are we?

Motivated by the desire to reduce the danger of our roadways, citizens of Austin coalesced around the Vision Zero approach and have been working to provide information, change culture and influence policy. Membership is made up of individuals passionate about creating safe streets. We have partnered with numerous existing organizations throughout Austin.

There are so many people whose lives have been irreparably shattered by injury. It’s easy to imagine the “what ifs” when we experience trauma or a loss; and maybe today should be the day that “what if’s” time has come.

Vision zero is the simple idea that every death and serious injury in traffic is preventable. People will make mistakes, but those mistakes should not lead to anyone losing their life or being severely hurt….
