About Vision Zero Dallas

The ability to travel safely throughout Dallas, without fear of collision or injury, is fundamental to the quality of life in our city. With that in mind, in 2019 the Dallas City Council set a goal of eliminating traffic fatalities and cutting severe injuries in half by 2030 by implementing Vision Zero, a  traffic safety strategy used in major cities throughout the globe. 

To define our strategy for meeting this goal, the Department of Transportation led the development of an Action Plan throughout 2021, with the support of a multi-disciplinary Vision Zero Task Force. Vision Zero Dallas is taking a collaborative and comprehensive approach to improving traffic safety through engineering, enforcement, education, evaluation, and equity. 


Vision Zero Action Plan

The Dallas Vision Zero Action Plan is a result of a two-year analysis, planning, and engagement process. The final document is the product of a collaborative planning effort that involved City staff, Council members, the Vision Zero task force, community leaders, and a public process that involved hundreds of Dallas residents.  The plan was adopted by Dallas City Council on June 8, 2022.

Public Meetings 

The City of Dallas hosted two public meetings regarding the development of the Vision Zero Action Plan. Vision Zero is a globally recognized traffic safety strategy that seeks to eliminate all traffic fatalities while increasing safe, healthy, and equitable mobility for all. The meetings served to update the public on the plan and introduce a new survey that allowed  input on priorities for improving safety. The survey was open November 16th through December 3rd.
