Making Richmond streets safer is a community effort — and that’s the core focus of this local initiative.

Vision Zero aims to eliminate traffic fatalities and serious injuries while promoting safe, healthy, and equitable streets for everyone.

Residents are encouraged to join by:

  • Buckling up
  • Avoiding distractions while driving
  • Sharing the road with all users
  • Obeying speed limits
  • Never driving impaired

City leaders, including Mayor Danny Avula, recently joined residents in taking the pledge, underscoring Richmond’s commitment to safer streets.
