What You Can Do

Since we released the first progress report for Boston in 2016, two more cities, Cambridge and Somerville, have committed to Vision Zero. For FY19, Mayor Walsh has proposed a tranformational $5 million transportation investment that will greatly expand the City’s ability to more rapidly implement dozens of critical street and transit projects.

The momentum to prioritize safe, healthy, and equitable mobility for all is growing, and we encourage you to get involved by taking any of the actions below:

Thank Mayor Walsh for his commitment to Boston’s transportation future by: Sending a thank you email to MAYOR@Boston.gov Tweeting thanks to @marty_walsh

Contact your city councilors and ask them to support the transportation investment and increased budget for Vision Zero for FY19.

Sign up to receive alerts from the Coalition so you can attend the Police, Public Works, and Transportation department hearings for the FY19 budget this spring, and testify in support of the $5 million investment for safer, healthier, and more sustainable transportation, which will directly benefit Vision Zero.
