I’m becoming increasingly convinced that the city’s Vision Zero strategy is just going to be a watered down public education campaign asking drivers to do the right thing for the millionth time
Between Monday and Wednesday, Indiana State Police reported nearly 100 crashes statewide, while IMPD logged at least 254 crashes in the city since Monday. Local highways have also seen multiple serious wrecks over the last week.
After two deadly crashes in Indianapolis, police and driving instructors share ways to stay safe
Indianapolis Police are urging drivers to use extra caution after two fatal crashes occurred in Indianapolis within about 48 hours.

Our local leaders need to try a bike to work week, then perhaps we will get action. Even our so called dedicated bike paths, esp at crossings, no where near safe enough.

We’ve also heard that VZTF members still have NOT YET SEEN the finalized Action Plan.
At this point the Action Plan will be FIVE months late. As we previously reported this delay meant NO DEDICATED FUNDING for Vision Zero efforts in the 2026 budget.
Nothing about this inspires confidence.

We’ve been hearing rumblings that the next Vision Zero Task Force meeting won’t be held until sometime in December — not before Thanksgiving as had previously been expected (though never confirmed).
The meeting is NOT expected to allow public comment nor review of the Action Plan before adoption.

It’s a miracle! Well - it’s a *partial* miracle. Only 18 months after a driver crashed their car through the fence and after I reported the damage to Mayor’s office, #Indy DPW hustled out this week to make a partial repair of the wooden fencing along 56th street’s section of the Eagle Creek Trail.
