1 Traffic Safety & Community Building: Presented by: Greg Raisman, Portland Bureau of Transportation Active Transportation & Traffic Safety
2 PLEASE DON T GET KILLED TODAY!
3 NOT ON A BICYCLE!
4 NOT WHILE WALKING!
5 NOR IN A BIG HUMMER ON A BIG FREEWAY
6 BECAUSE I LL BE SAD
7 SO WILL YOUR FAMILY
8 YOUR FRIENDS OK. These are my friends, but they d be sad too. (on their way to a costume fun run)
9 AND The other people in the crash. Your neighbors. Your coworkers. Crash witnesses. Emergency responders.
10 REFRAME THE ISSUE. The value of people s lives does not change based on travel mode.
11 REFRAME THE ISSUE. This isn t about us and them. It s about making our neighborhoods safe, livable, equitable, healthy, fun, and inviting!
12 WHICH BRINGS ME TO WHY WE RE HERE TODAY.
13 Portland s Approach to Traffic Safety Comprehensive Traffic Safety Approach (E)ngineering (E)ducation (E)nforcement (E)ncouragement (E)valuation (E)quity Focus on the Most Vulnerable First Children and Seniors In 2008, 23% of PDX population under 18 In 2008, 13% of PDX population over 65 People with disabilities Provide for Many Travel Options PARTNERSHIPS: transportation, police, neighborhoods, schools, emergency response, business, advocates working together
14 How to Measure? Per Population not Per Vehicle Miles Traveled Per population asks: Given the way we live our lives, what s the likelihood this type of tragedy will happen to me? Per VMT asks: How many miles do we have to drive to make it look like more people getting killed is rationally linked to improved safety?
15
16 Making Progress: Portland v. The World! ( ;-) )
17 Biggest Safety Benefits: Occupants of Cars and Trucks 1986: 61 MV Fatals 1996: 41 MV Fatals 2013: 25 MV Fatals (2010: LOW 11 MV Fatals)
18 823-SAFE Hotline PBOT Traffic Safety & Livability Hotline Intersection safety Pedestrian safety School safety Speeding Visibility Bicycle safety Parking control Capital project requests Front door for traffic enforcement requests Requests tracked Shapes enforcement and engineering services
19 INTEGRATE ENFORCEMENT & EDUCATION SHARE THE ROAD SAFETY CLASS 25,000 served, since 2007, and counting! Traffic law & safety class for specific traffic violations - educational alternative to conviction and fine with motor rights, shared present Police, PDOT, BTA, NHTSA- grant from ODOT Includes bicyclists & pedestrians vehicle drivers - shared responsibilities Broad Coalition developed and the class: Judge, Nurse, Oregon Walks Self supporting after $10,000 funded traffic safety seed-
20 CROSSWALK ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS Monthly missions Community identified locations Crash evaluation Regular media Leadership participation Advocacy partner communications
21 School Missions Assistance with traffic enforcement throughout the year Targeted traffic enforcement during the start of the school year at every public school in the City Traffic Division, School Resource Officers.
22 What s Next? Legislative activity Fixed speed cameras Vision Zero
23 Using what we've got: Creating Community in the Street
24 BEFORE: Harbor Drive Freeway CARS BEFORE PEOPLE
25 AFTER: TOM MCCALL WATERFRONT PARK CITIES ARE FOR PEOPLE!
26 Creating a park is awesome! But, streets are a much larger canvas.
27 What we have: It's Big and Expensive! There are more than 4,000,000 miles of roads in America.
28 What we have: It's Big and Expensive! Portland: 4,000 miles of road More than 20% land mass = ROW 22,000 intersections $10 Billion in transportation assets $250,000 per residential block $250,000 per traffic signal $60,000,000 per mile of freeway (ODOT) 26,000,000 miles traveled each day 100s of millions of human interactions
29 Every day: 100s of Millions! Shared Experiences Happen in the Street.
