Upcoming Community Meetings for the Cliff Drive Vision Zero Project
The City will host two community meetings to update residents on the Cliff Drive Vision Zero Project (Project). In 2018, the City adopted a Vision Zero strategy that aims to prevent severe and fatal injuries on City streets by focusing resources on high-priority streets with documented collision patterns. Cliff Drive is the second-highest priority corridor in the city. This Project addresses the community’s desires to transform this high-speed urban highway into a neighborhood-serving street with enhanced mobility and improved safety, with multi-modal transit opportunities for all ages and abilities, providing safe connections between neighborhoods, schools, and parks.
Spanish interpretation will be available at both meetings. The virtual meeting will be posted on the Project webpage. Construction is expected to begin in 2027.
