Commitment to Zero Safety Action Plan
On November 29, 2022, the TPO Board adopted Commitment to Zero: An Action Plan for Safer Streets in Ocala Marion. Commitment to Zero is the Ocala Marion TPO’s call to action to eliminate traffic-related fatalities and serious injuries by 2045. Commitment to Zero is a community-wide shift in how the region talks about, approaches, and addresses traffic safety.
Commitment to Zero is founded on four principles: Education and Awareness, Public and Partner Engagement, Safety Analysis, and Action Planning. Together, these form the foundation of a lasting effort to foster change and action.
A major outcome of the Commitment to Zero Action Plan process is an ongoing emphasis on the implementation of agreed-upon strategies, including shared responsibility to support building a stronger safety culture and transportation system in the Ocala/Marion community. The Action Plan also contains a project list that supports multi-modal safety improvements to the roadway system of Marion County.
