Plans
Active Transportation Plan 2020
The main goal of the plan is to encourage bicycling and walking. It's comprised of three plans: bicycle, pedestrian and safe routes to school. Our plan is to create a safe, connected network for bicycling and walking. Some recommendations include:
- Making infrastructure changes (such as adding bike lanes or crosswalks)
- Teaching walking and biking safety skills

Vision Zero Plan
We developed the Vision Zero Plan to reduce roadway fatalities and serious injuries. The plan is a phased approach with a goal of 50% reduction by 2029, and nearing zero by 2039.
Roadway Safety Plan
Based on our five-year traffic safety analysis we developed the Roadway Safety Plan. The plan's purpose is to define solutions to the traffic issues found in the analysis. Also, having the plan provides eligibility to receive federal funding. The funding will allow us to implement the roadway solutions.
Policies
Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT)
VMT is a new environmental policy. It affects land-use and transportation projects. The new analysis counts trips going to and from the project site. This policy changes the way we study potential transportation environmental impacts. Use VTA's VMT Evaluation Tool to identify these potential impacts.
