Traffic Safety
As Chula Vista continues to grow, so does the number of cars, bicycles and pedestrians traveling on City streets. The Neighborhood Traffic and Pedestrian Safety Program is designed to call attention to the safety and quality of life of the pedestrians, bicyclists, and motoring public within Chula Vista. There are four main goals to the program:
- Implement neighborhood traffic calming
- Reduce intersection collisions
- Improve pedestrian safety and vehicular circulation adjacent to schools
- Reduce accidents involving pedestrians and bicyclists
Divided into three sections, the Neighborhood Traffic and Pedestrian Safety Program aims to achieve these goals through a collaborative effort with Chula Vista residents, neighborhood groups, and City staff. These three sections address the following issues:
