Present strategy for prioritizing traffic safety improvement requests from residents
In Plain English
Richmond receives many resident requests for traffic safety improvements like crosswalks and speed bumps throughout the city. The city hired consultants to create a system for tracking, evaluating and prioritizing these requests based on factors like crash data and community equity. Staff will present this new strategy and ask for council direction on how to move forward with a $750,000 budget.
