Additional Considerations

Agencies are encouraged to incorporate equity-specific safety data and consider equity-related safety risk factors in the project identification process. In many communities, traditionally disadvantaged populations are disproportionately impacted by fatal and serious injury crashes.  For more information please see Target Zero, pp. 217-221. Agencies can access equity-related data through the Washington Tracking Network.
