Safe Streets and Roads for All

City of Starkville’s Safe Streets and Roads for All Safety Action Plan

Project Introduction

Starkville’s Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) Safety Action Plan is the first step in identifying challenges and solutions needed to help make our roadways safer for everyone. The Safety Action Plan’s purpose is to improve roadway safety by significantly reducing or eliminating roadway fatalities and serious injuries through safety action plan development and project implementation focused on all users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, public transit users and motorists. The Safety Action Plan is funded with a grant from the US Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration. 

We want to hear from you! Your feedback will help inform the study team of your safety concerns so that we may better understand and address your priorities as the study progresses.

Let us hear your thoughts by taking this short survey, https://metroquestsurvey.com/js6a6k,  that is designed to identify and prioritize safety concerns. The survey should take no more than five minutes to complete.
