According to Ohio State Highway Patrol's crash database, since Jan. 1, there have already been more than 8,000 traffic crashes in Franklin County. Officials say that's a decrease from last year.
In 2021, the City of Columbus launched its multi-year Vision Zero Action Plan, an initiative aimed at eliminating traffic fatalities by 2030.
The results might be promising for highway traffic, however Columbus streets remain a significant risk for pedestrians and cyclists, especially on wide, high traffic roads like Morse Road and High Street.
We will learn more about what changes the city is trying to make to improve traffic safety on this hour of All Sides.
Guests:
- Katherine Swidarski, Vision Zero coordinator
- Angela Harden, research and assistant professor, Ohio State University's School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences
- Ginger Tornes, founder, Friends and Families for Safe Streets Columbus
