“Fort Lauderdale recognizes that it will take a unified effort at all levels of government to effectively address this complex national issue. To that end, I encourage every state, city, town, and village to join us in this important cause by adopting Complete Streets and Vision Zero policies and develop comprehensive street safety solutions. I also urge every walker, biker, and driver to do their part to eliminate traffic fatalities and severe injuries on our streets by adhering to the rules of the road, following proper safety procedures, and never walking, biking, or driving while texting or under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Through collaboration, communication, education, and participation we must all do our part to make our streets safer, achieve Vision Zero and, ultimately, save lives.”

Additional Signal Four Analytics statistics reviewed show that:

• More than 1,400 pedestrians and bicyclists suffered serious injuries on Fort Lauderdale’s streets between 2009 and 2014.

• Fifty-four children, ages six to 19, were involved in crashes walking or riding a bike to or from school.

• Eighty-two percent of crashes involving pedestrians occurred at non-intersection areas between 2009 and 2014. Of these recorded incidents, only 18% occurred at an intersection.

Numerous factors contribute to these fatality rates, including a lack of pedestrian and bicycle-friendly infrastructure, a lack of alternative transportation options, dangerous pedestrian, bicyclist, and motorist behavior, mid-block transit/bus stops, and a lack of knowledge on how to safely share the street.

The maps shown in Figures 7 - 12 pinpoint where reported incidents occurred within the last five years, where pedestrians and bicyclists are at risk, and where action is needed to mitigate the dangerous driving conditions in Fort Lauderdale. The maps are broken into six zones to help localize the data and provide insight into major corridors, regional hot spots for crashes, targeted school zones, and bicyclist fatalities and injuries.

Northwest Zone Problem Areas Major transportation corridors in the Northwest Zone include Commercial Boulevard, Powerline Road, and I-95. This zone is a commercial hub and there is minimal residential housing. This area includes the Uptown district that consists of office buildings and commercial and industrial land uses in a vehicle-centric land use pattern. Limited pedestrian and bicycle accommodations, COCONUT as well as limited access to public transit create regional hot spots along large arterials like Powerline Road/N.W.CREEK 9th Avenue.

Central-East Zone Problem Areas BLVD OAKLAND PARK The Central-East Zone encompasses downtown Fort Lauderdale and includes a mix of land uses with increasing density of residential areas along arterial corridors. Commercial uses are focused along arterials with the highest density between Broward Boulevard and the New River, Andrews Avenue, and US1/Federal Highway.

This zone includes a high number of major accident corridors, partially attributed to the volume of users on the streets. Broward Boulevard and Sunrise Boulevard are major east-west traffic corridors with limited bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure. Las Olas Boulevard is also a heavy vehicular volume street with high pedestrian traffic. Federal Highway is a major traffic corridor with limited bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure. Regional hot spots include intersections along A1A/Seabreeze Boulevard, S.W. R 2nd Street, and Sunrise Boulevard. D For a variety of reasons, these intersections are dangerous for pedestrians and bicyclists.

Background Problem Benefits Action

Reducing Congestion Developing a connected city that is safe for pedestrians and bicyclists of all ages and abilities encourages individuals to reduce driving trips and engage in biking and walking. This produces the positive effect of moving people from congested traffic lanes to open sidewalks or into other forms of public transportation to reduce the number of vehicles on streets, thereby reducing the number of crashes. Fewer crashes and diverse modes of travel reduces roadway congestion and makes travel more efficient and safe for everyone.

Vision Zero Fort Lauderdale Timeline Beginning in Summer 2016, the City of Fort Lauderdale and Vision Zero partners will begin implementing the Vision Zero Plan. Once the plan is adopted by the Fort Lauderdale City Commission, a Vision Zero Champions Committee and a Vision Zero Technical Committee will be assembled with representatives from participating Vision Zero partners.

The Vision Zero Champions Committee will meet as needed in order to measure progress in the implementation of Vision Zero’s Five Es. An annual (or biannual depending on progress and resources) progress report will be released to the public, along with an action plan every five years, that will determine which strategies will be the priority for the Vision Partners. The timeline graphic in Figure 15 provides a visual representation of how the City of Fort Lauderdale and its partners hope to achieve zero fatalities.

IMPLEMENTATION METHODS and Partners In order to achieve Vision Zero, this plan must be implemented in collaboration with all current and future Vision Zero partners. The collaborative techniques outlined in Table 7 will be used to effectively implement Vision Zero Fort Lauderdale and the Five Es.

Table 7. Vision Zero Fort Lauderdale Collaboration Methods

METHOD DESCRIPTION

By coordinating with our partners, the Vision Zero objectives can be completed through additional Funding and Resources funding sources while decreasing the economic burden on any one partner. To show legislators the importance Fort Lauderdale places on Vision Zero, all Vision Partners must be unified in support of the Vision Zero Plan and the Five Es that comprise it. Sample collaborative policy initiatives include, but are not limited to, no Turn on red in high pedestrian volume intersections, Policy Initiatives amendment of the current warrant for new pedestrian crossings, pedestrian priority zones, and land use regulations that encourage dense mixed-use development, including mobility hubs, Transit Oriented Development, etc. Since Vision Zero is a plan for all of Fort Lauderdale’s neighbors, including visitors and business Engagement and Outreach owners, all partners must engage in community outreach in order to inform neighbors about Vision Zero and how they can do their part to help achieve zero fatalities Reaching out to businesses within Fort Lauderdale to inform them about Vision Zero and how they Private Sector Involvement can become involved as a partner can help achieve zero fatalities faster and more comprehensively.

Navigating Vision Zero The public and private entities within the City of Fort Lauderdale are all stakeholders in the implementation of a zero-fatality transportation system.

Figure 16. The Five Es of Vision Zero There are many potential contributors for each action strategy in this plan and other adopted City Commission plans. The purpose of this section is to provide guidance and specific action strategies for implementation. Encouragement Education Recognizing that implementation can be a daunting task, the information presented in Tables 8 - 12 is intended to serve as a starting point. As the City’s community builders and partners collect and synthesize additional data, action strategies ZERO may be updated and added as needed. The action FATALITIES strategies are broken down into the respective Five E categories. Engineering Enforcement
