The mother country, Sweden, is your go-to way to lower pedestiran deaths, and here’s what American cities are looking to emulate:
- Sweden began Vision Zero to lower pedestrian deaths in 1997
- Focus first on rural roads by building 3 lane roads, with a middle lane used for passing only.
- Build separated bike lanes
- Lower speed limits
- Create pedestrian-only zones
