This comprehensive digital resource is designed to translate the high-level goals of the Vision Zero initiative into actionable steps for Brevard County residents, planners, and local officials. The toolkit, comprised of various digital deliverables, serves as a centralized hub for data-driven strategies aimed at eliminating traffic fatalities and serious injuries.

Getting Started: The Foundations

Before diving into specific projects, it is essential to understand the "why" and "how" behind the Vision Zero movement. These two deliverables are great starting points to set the foundation.
