New Initiatives

The City of Richmond is committed to Vision Zero, a multidisciplinary strategy to eliminate all traffic fatalities and severe injuries while increasing safe, healthy, equitable mobility for everyone.

According to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), a road diet, or roadway reconfiguration, enhances safety, calms traffic, improves mobility and access for all road users, and boosts overall quality of life.

We invite you to complete a survey that features four projects aimed at improving safety through roadway reconfiguration:

A. Reconfiguration and Bike Lanes on Franklin Street
B. Reconfiguration and Bike Lanes on Hopkins Road
C. Reconfiguration and Bike Lanes on W Leigh Street
D. Reconfiguration on Hull Street
