As part of the Evaluation and Data Subcommittee Goals, Action Item (2.3) from the Three-Year Vision Zero Action Plan 2017 is to “Engage university research partners to design and implement traffic safety research and program evaluations.”
In 2018, The City of Philadelphia’s Office of Transportation and Infrastructure Systems (OTIS) partnered with ImpactED at the University of Pennsylvania to engage Philadelphia’s robust research community on the topic of Vision Zero. The Vision Zero Research Partnership, which is a group of area researchers and practitioners, was created to promote innovative, smart, inter-disciplinary thinking around Vision Zero.
