Jacksonville is demonstrating what it looks like to pair strong interagency collaboration with a concrete, implementation-ready action plan. The City developed both local and state High Injury Networks — the latter in partnership with FDOT — a meaningful step toward shared accountability for safety outcomes across the full roadway system, regardless of who owns the road.
Priority areas were identified through a process grounded in multi-year crash data analysis, stakeholder and Task Force input, public engagement, and a careful evaluation of safety themes and contributing factors — helping investments reflect both the data and the communities most affected.
- Designing safer streets
- Promoting a culture of safety
- Protecting pedestrians
- Supporting cycling
- Driving data-informed decisions
- Improving nighttime visibility
A "20 Is Plenty" initiative to reduce residential speed limits, lane repurposing strategies to convert high-speed corridors into safer configurations, and expanded multimodal design practices — a deliberate move from reactive fixes toward a proactive, systems-level approach to safety.
