Organizers said they are frustrated after years of stalled progress, even though the city adopted Safe Streets policies more than a decade ago and Vision Zero nearly two years ago.

For all road users, at least 13 fatalities in October — of which 6 were vulnerable road users (pedestrians/bicyclists). 😖

It’s definitely possible to get these numbers down — if the city actually commits both time and funding to do so.

Unfortunately as of now Indianapolis is all talk, no action.

“Helsinki hasn’t registered a single traffic-related fatality in the past year…Citing data that shows the risk of pedestrian fatality is cut in half by reducing a car’s speed from 40 to 30km/hr, city officials imposed the lower limit in most of Helsinki’s residential areas & city center in 2021.”
Helsinki just went a full year without a single traffic death
The capital city is Finnish’ed with car-related fatalities.

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.
