Redmond’s Safer Streets Action Plan will identify strategies to proactively improve the safety of Redmond’s transportation system and position the City to pursue federal and state safety grant funding. The Safety Action Plan includes strategies to reduce vehicle speeds in Redmond, upgrade the City’s traffic signals to make them safer for pedestrians and bicyclists, create safer routes to schools for Redmond’s students, and more. Redmond encourages drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians to remain aware and alert when using the City’s transportation network so we can work together to build a safer Redmond.

The City of Redmond is seeking community feedback to enhance safety near schools and parks through potential measures. Speed safety cameras are a form of automated traffic enforcement that issue citations (first with a warning) to drivers who violate the posted speed limit. They have been endorsed as a “proven safety countermeasure” by the Federal Highway Administration and have been implemented in many cities in Washington, including Bellevue, Kirkland, Kenmore, Lake Forest Park, and Seattle. Redmond's speed safety camera program will be subject to the Revised Code of Washington 46.63.220, which requires all revenue to be directed to making street safety improvements. Your input will help us better understand community needs and concerns.
