Vision Zero is the Department of Transportation’s overarching traffic safety initiative. Our ambitious goal is to reach zero fatalities and zero severe injuries from traffic crashes by 2040. As part of our ongoing work to make that more achievable, we’re excited to announce a revamped VisionZeroSJ.org website and two new interactive data dashboards.

Our new website shares the key elements of our Vision Zero program and supporting efforts in an easy-to-read, mobile-friendly layout. Most importantly, it meets our residents where they are, because keeping track of meetings, studies, reports, maps, statistics, programs, and interventions can be overwhelming.

The newly updated Vision Zero website will serve as a one-stop-shop for traffic safety information in San José. The site brings together information on the City’s traffic crash landscape, high-injury road networks (priority safety corridors), ongoing projects, enforcement programs, education efforts, and other initiatives focused on reducing traffic deaths and severe injuries. Clearly labeled tile buttons help City staff and residents navigate the options and find the information they want.

We’re particularly excited to share our two new data dashboards. Both let you view crashes on a map and sort by city council district, injury severity, location along our high-injury network, age range, crash type, and equity score:

Traffic Crashes Dashboard:
This tracks all crashes during the latest five-year period for which we have data available (currently 2020-2024).

KSI Crashes Dashboard
This dashboard displays data about crashes in which someone was killed or severely injured (KSI). KSI is our most important metric as we strive toward Vision Zero. We want both to be zero!

As called for in the 2025 Vision Zero Action Plan, these dashboards improve public access to traffic safety data and help us better communicate trends and measure progress over time. By making this information easier to explore and understand, we hope to support more informed conversations and stronger community partnerships around traffic safety in San José.

We also now have a dedicated Vision Zero email address so community members can more easily reach the team with questions, feedback, or concerns at: Vision.Zero@sanjoseca.gov.

We encourage you to visit the refreshed website and explore the data and programs that matter to you. More data sources and links will be added over time. Reaching our Vision Zero goal will take all of us to understand the problem, identify potential solutions, and examine and adjust our own behaviors on the road. With the right information and tools, we can bring about a future of zero traffic fatalities and severe injuries in San José!
