We Need Safe Streets Now. Here's One Simple Way You Can Help Make It Happen.

We need a Manual for Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) that puts the safety of people walking and moving over the convenience of people in cars.  We need: Safe, convenient, protected crosswalks.  Speed limits based on safety. Proper signal infrastructure at every urbanized intersection. A local street manual that can rise to the challenge of skyrocketing pedestrian deaths.  Baseline standards that make our communities safer and more accessible. Use our convenient letter/comment template to tell Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg to rewrite the MUTCD in a way that puts safety and equity first.
