Congratulations to MetroPlan Orlando on this recognition for a project well done! I'm happy to have been a part of this extremely committed and hard working project team.
Congratulations to MetroPlan Orlando for the Orlando Metro Section - APA Florida 2024 planning projectof the year award for Vision Zero Central Florida! The award was accepted during the OMS 2024 Holiday Party and Awards Celebration on Thursday, December 5, 2024. MetroPlan Orlando lead a coordinated planning effort in partnership with local agencies to develop a Vision Zero Safety Action Plan for Central Florida, as well as additional action plans tailored for each county and city in the region that identified opportunities to make Central Florida roads safer – this planning effort was completed under the Vision Zero Central Florida banner. Vision Zero Central Florida (VZCFL) is a coordinated effort led by MetroPlan Orlando, partnering with local jurisdictions, to provide comprehensive Safety Action Plans for our three-county region (Osceola, Orange and Seminole Counties), as well as for each county and city. These plans lay out regional and local efforts to change road designs, educate and engage people, and work with law enforcement to save lives. Our regional partnership approach, as far as we know, is unique among Vision Zero safety initiatives nationwide. This work was made possible by a $3.79 million Safe Streets and Roads for All federal grant awarded to MetroPlan Orlando in 2023. Vision Zero seeks to build layers of protection into the transportation system through a proactive method called the safe system approach, which includes working on safer roads, safer vehicles, safer speeds, addressing needs of all travelers, and strengthening post-crash care. The Safety Action plans that have been developed aim to save lives by proposing changes in roadway designs, engaging and educating the community, and working with law enforcement. https://lnkd.in/eRv-5v4B

We are so proud to have partnered with WMATA on the Better Bus Network Redesign. ❤️ The project, which was recently approved by the WMATA Board, has completely redesigned the Metrobus system to better serve the needs of the DC region’s diverse communities–something that hadn’t been done systematically since the 1970s. At the WTS-DC holiday party last week, BBNR was awarded this year’s Innovative Transportation Solutions Award, which recognizes a completed innovative transportation initiative, solution, project, or policy led by a woman (or in this case, many women). As the consultant team Project Manager, Dalia Leven was honored to help accept the award alongside WMATA’s own Allison Davis. 👏 Congratulations to the team and to the many women who worked tirelessly to achieve this major milestone! Allison Davis; Melissa Kim; Lisa Schooley, PMP; Jessica Alvarez, PTP; Alanna McKeeman, AICP; Jessica Lawless; Lora Byala; and Jody Fisher. Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) Kimley-Horn Foursquare ITP LOCUS NeoNiche Strategies WBA Research Thank you WTS-DC Chapter for recognizing this important project!
