What is Vision Zero?

Vision Zero is a safety initiative that aims to achieve a roadway system with zero fatalities or serious injuries. We've already built a demo of the map! Check it out here.

What will opentlh do with this information?

We firmly believe data that involves and impacts the public should be freely available, however, it's not. That's why we're working to liberate this data and share it with the public.
