Regional Safety Task Force

The Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC) is committed to a regional safety approach to eliminate fatal and serious injuries crashes that is data-driven, proactive, and aggressive. ARC is convening a Regional Safety Task Force (RSTF) in order to lead the region towards zero traffic deaths. RSTF will help ARC:

  • establish a regional safety vision;
  • identify actionable strategies and resources;
  • track our progress toward meeting regional safety targets;
  • promote better transportation project development;
  • promote a culture of safety.

Vision

The Regional Safety Task Force envisions travel in the Atlanta region by any mode will be safe, accessible, and convenient, especially for the most vulnerable road users. Community and agency partners will collaborate to eliminate traffic-related fatalities and serious injuries through the use of context-sensitive and health-focused design, data-driven decision making, robust funding levels, and innovative technology solutions to ensure safe and equitable mobility for everyone in the Atlanta region.
