EUGENE VISION ZERO Vision Statement Our community values the sat ety of all people who use our multimodal transportation system and will take equitable, data-driven actions to eliminate deaths and life-changing injuries by 2035. Guiding Tenets These tenets have helped shape the actions included in this plan and will continue to guide their implementation. In order to be effective, every agency, community partner and resident involved in making Vision Zero a reality should check their actions against these tenets by asking is this program or this project equitable, data-driven and accountable? .AT7\ Equitable Life-Changing Injuries: Crashes that result in major injuries change the life of the victim and their family and friends. Serious injuries are defined as those that prevent the victim from going about their daily life as before. This can mean lost time at work, dependence on a family member for care, large medical bills and other long-term impacts . Though not fatal, these crashes have long-lasting effects. ~ Eugene strives to be a community where every person regardless of their identity is safe, valued and welcome . A person's identity encompasses multiple aspects, including, but not limited to: age, race, ethnicity, gender, national origin, religion, disability, sexual orientation, socio-economic and housing status . This plan seeks to make Eugene's streets safer for all people who travel on them . ~ Data-Driven 8 The actions in this plan were determined through a process of data analysis and ~ community conversation that took place at community events over the spring , summer, and fall of 2017. Starting with data allows us to add ress the issues we know have caused crashes in the past, and the locations with the worst crash histories . This plan cal ls for increasing the amount of data and agency coordination to ensure even mo re detai led and pertinent analysis can drive Vision Zero actions in the future. ~fl. Accountable This plan belongs to the people of Eugene. We recognize that traffic crashes can impact anyone in our community, and we want t o be held accountable by our res idents for addressing that serious problem . To do this, the plan must first be accountable to itself which is why we call for tracking the effectiveness of actions and making changes where and when needed . When that process is in place, we can then report to our residents on our successes and adjustments . Progress will be communicated in an annual report. 6
