Project Name:

Boulder County, Lafayette, & Superior Vision Zero Action Plans

Background:

Boulder County, the City of Lafayette and the Town of Superior (collectively “the Partners”) desire

to reduce the incidence of traffic violence in our communities. As part of its 2020 Transportation

Master Plan, Boulder County adopted a target of zero serious injury and fatal traffic crashes in

unincorporated Boulder County by 2035. As part of its 2014 Transportation Plan Update, Town of

Superior has established a goal to provide a safe multimodal transportation system. Providing a

safe multimodal transportation system is enshrined in the City of Lafayette’s Comprehensive Plan,

and the City is currently developing a Multimodal Transportation Plan.

In support of these goals, Boulder County partnered with the City of Lafayette and the Town of

Superior to apply for a United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) Federal Highway

Administration (FHWA) Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant to complete a Vision Zero

Action Plan. Boulder County is hereby seeking to hire a consulting firm to complete this work.

While this is a single project, the Partners envision the final deliverable as three standalone action

plans covering the following geographies that can be used by the Partners independently:

1. Unincorporated Boulder County and the Town of Jamestown, Town of Nederland, and the

Town of Ward (collectively “the Mountain Towns”)

2. The City of Lafayette

3. The Town of Superior

Project Goals:

1. Serve as a playbook to reduce serious injury and fatal traffic crashes and achieve Vision

Zero

2. Document and highlight the resources needed to reduce serious injury and fatal traffic

crashes and achieve Vision Zero

Project Objectives:

1. Identify a list of locations for improvements and the installation of proven safety

countermeasures, based on either location-specific crash patterns (reactive) or systemic

risk factors (proactive).

2. Prioritize projects based on crashes, equity, Denver Regional Council of Governments

(DRCOG) High Injury Network (HIN), and public input.

3. Develop planning level cost estimates (ranges) for recommended countermeasures

4. Develop project fact sheets (one-pagers) for the top-ranking projects (a minimum of 10),

either specific to locations/corridors or countermeasures deployed systemwide, that

include preliminary concept designs and high-level cost estimates

Project Requirements

1. Review of 2012-2021 traffic crash data.

2. Review and assessment of other data needs, including roadway and network

characteristics (lane geometry, speed limits, signalized intersection locations, etc.),

sociodemographic, socioeconomic, injury data, and land use information.

3. Assist with development of ongoing crash analysis procedures for each agency.

4. Intersection and segment crash analyses to identify locations with high potential for crash

reduction (direct diagnostics/pattern recognition).

5. Systemic safety analyses of, at a minimum, state highways, arterial and collector streets,

as well as other locations, as needed, to identify risk, causal, and environmental factors

that may contribute to the occurrence of crashes which could be mitigated through

proactive implementation of proven safety countermeasures.

6. Update/confirm a HIN for unincorporated Boulder County and the Mountain Towns;

development of HINs for Lafayette and Superior.

7. Preparation of community engagement plan.

8. Completion of engagement events and activities.

9. Actions (within the areas of engineering, enforcement, education, and evaluation) and

performance measures focused on HINs and/or common crash types.

10. High-level cost estimates for actions focused on HINs.

11. Prioritization methodology.

12. Countermeasure selection and prioritization for Systemic Safety Improvements

13. High-level cost estimates for Systemic Safety Improvements

14. Preparation of project fact sheets (one-pagers) for top 10 locations that include

preliminary concept designs and high-level cost estimates.

15. Preparation of standalone Vision Zero Action Plans that incorporate all the above items in

a graphically rich and easy to understand way, including a one page highlight for each.

16. Compliance with the requirements of the USDOT/FHWA Intergovernmental Agreement

(IGA), attached as Attachment A.
