City of Edmonds launches public survey on Comprehensive Safety Action Plan

The City of Edmonds launched a public survey to support its Comprehensive Safety Action Plan, which aims to improve transportation safety across the city. Funded by a federal grant from the Safe Streets and Roads for All program, the plan focuses on reducing crashes and identifying unsafe locations for pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers. Community input is crucial for understanding transportation challenges, and residents can share their concerns until August 31, 2025. The city will also staff project tables at local events, including the Downtown Edmonds Summer Market and the Sunday Concert in the City Park, to gather feedback. The plan will establish a safety vision, conduct analyses, and develop policies to address identified issues.

Once completed, the city will be eligible for further SS4A grant funding to implement safety improvements. The project team encourages participation through an online survey and a mapping tool for residents to highlight specific problem areas. Engaging the community in this process will help shape Edmonds' transportation future.
