Boca Raton has hired Kimley-Horn and Associates, an engineering and planning firm, to develop a Vision Zero action plan for the city.
The City Council previously approved a resolution that designates Boca Raton as a “Vision Zero city” and directed staff to create a plan to achieve that goal.
Vision Zero is a national program aimed at eliminating severe traffic injuries and deaths by making roadways safer, among other things.
The city received a $300,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation last year to create a plan. That will cover most of the $379,270 that the city will pay Kimley-Horn to develop it.
