STRATEGIC OUTCOME:
This action supports the City Council’s strategic outcomes of Safe and Prosperous and Respected and Responsible by developing a comprehensive safety action plan identifying and prioritizing safety improvements that accommodate all modes of transportation and users.
REPORT:
A Safety Action Plan (SAP) will provide a framework to accomplish safety enhancements and will serve as guide for development of future safety improvements in the City. The purpose of this SAP is to improve roadway safety by significantly reducing or eliminating roadway fatalities and serious injuries through safety action plan development or projects focused on all users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, public transportation users, motorists, personal conveyance and micromobility users, and commercial vehicle operators.
This SAP will be a coordinated effort that will accomplish the following:
1. Develop a clear vision and mission to unite stakeholders with a common goal.
2. Assemble collaborative partners and stakeholders to support the plan.
3. Identify manpower and create tools essential for ensuring long term execution of the plan.
4. Foster open and frequent communication with stakeholders, community partners, and citizens as the plan is developed.
The City of Yuma’s SAP will integrate the 4 E’s - engineering, enforcement, education, and evaluation and provide a road map for the City to hone a “safety first” proactive stance in reducing and preventing road fatalities and injuries.
Request for Qualifications (RFQ) were initiated to obtain responses to the solicitation. The evaluation committee, comprised of City staff and outside representation, reviewed and rated the proposals received, based on the RFQ scoring matrix.
The City received two responses from highly qualified firms whose experience includes projects in communities within the state.
