Public input is requested from the Athens-Clarke County Transportation and Public Works Department on roadway safety and accessibility concerns for the Safe Streets for All Safety Action Plan.

An online survey is www.accgov.com/safestreets and will be open through Sunday, November 24. Additionally, a pop-up event is planned for Saturday, November 2 during the AthHalf Expo from 12pm to 6pm at the Classic Center Pavilion, where staff will be available to share information about the project and receive feedback from residents.

Athens-Clarke County received a federal Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant to help improve roadway safety for all users, including driving, walking, biking, and transit. The Safety Action Plan (SAP) is aimed at reducing injuries and fatalities resulting from roadway crashes by developing recommendations and strategies to increase roadway safety for all modes of transportation.

Additional outreach and public input opportunities will take place through December 2025.

For more information on the SS4A Program and Safety Action Plan, call the Athens-Clarke County Transportation and Public Works Department at 706-613-3440 or email engineering@accgov.com.
