Safe Streets. Safe Speeds. Safe Vehicles. Safe People.
Let’s come together to create safe travel for everyone.
2023 Regional Transportation Safety Plan
The most common manners of collision in all crashes were rear end (31%), single vehicle (23%), and angle (Front To Side)(Other Than Left Turn) (16%).
MetroPlan supports the elimination of traffic fatalities and serious injuries and will adopt a “Vision Zero” policy as part of its Vulnerable Road Users Safety Action Plan that commences next spring.
The Regional Transportation Safety Plan (RTSP) establishes a framework for reducing fatal and serious injury crashes on public roads in the MetroPlan region by identifying crash trends, emphasis areas, performance measures, high-risk crash locations, funding resources, and potential projects.
​
A crash analysis was performed for the MetroPlan region based on the most recent five years of available crash data: January 1, 2017, to December 31, 2021. Over this period, 10,076 reported crashes occurred, with 57 fatalities and 2,360 injuries in the MetroPlan region.
-
Intersection crashes account for the highest number of fatal plus serious injury crashes at 44%
-
Lane departure crashes represent the second-highest number of fatal plus serious injury crashes at 42%
-
Nighttime crashes represent the third highest number of fatal plus serious injury crashes at 30%
-
Of the 139 pedestrian-involved crashes, 11% resulted in fatalities, while 19% were reported as suspected serious injuries
-
Of the 151 bicycle-involved crashes, 2% resulted in fatalities, while 16% were reported as suspected serious injuries
-
“Speed Too Fast For Conditions” and “Failed To Yield Right Of Way” are the top crash violations in the region
Safe streets are the foundation of a livable region.
When people step out their front door, they expect and deserve a safe way to get where they're going, whether it's walking or bicycling in the neighborhood, getting to transit, or driving down a highway.
In the last 5 years (2017-2021), the Flagstaff region had over 10,000 crashes that led to 3,450 serious injuries and 62 deaths. The Regional Transportation Safety Plan will provide a regionally-focused, data-driven framework for increasing traffic safety on roadways in the greater Flagstaff region. The Plan focuses on strategies and actions drawn from best practices proven to reduce traffic-related deaths and serious injuries. Our vision is zero. Share it.
