Vision Zero is the commitment to eliminating death and serious injury from traffic crashes. By changing how we design, use and view our streets, we can make them safer for everyone. The Village of Oak Park launched its Vision Zero planning process in the fall of 2023 and is expected to conclude the project by the fall of 2024, resulting in a Vision Zero action plan.
Community and stakeholder engagement will continue throughout the remainder of the project. Subscribe to the project website to stay informed on these upcoming events.

Thanks for contacting us with your question. Traffic safety around parks and schools has been highlighted during community engagement efforts as key areas for safety improvements. The Village recently recevied good news that it has been awarded a grant through Safe Streets for All Planning and Demonstration. This grant will be used to implement some of the recommendations from the Vision Zero plan. This grant will fund quick-build safety tools at up to 10 locations near park and schools, on top of various other planning and demonstration efforts.

Thanks for reaching out. The Village’s Vision Zero team is in the process of refining its recommendations for the final Vision Zero plan, which is expected to be completed this fall, and brought to the Village board for approval this winter. Click here for a project update from May that captures some of the feedback from the community and how it is helping to form the development of the Vision Zero plan. For more information about the project, feel free to email publicworks@oak-park.us.
An example of how community feedback is shaping the plan is related to the traffic calming toolbox. At the last Vision Zero open house in July, a variety of potential traffic calming tools were presented for residents to vote on if they would like to see a given traffic calming tool in the community or not. Through these votes, and conversation with residents and the Vision Zero team, this feedback helped refine the proposed tool box for the Vision Zero draft plan.
Share Hello,
I've seen vehicles parked on the sidewalks, next to a house's garage. According to OP police, this is acceptable because it is on the home's driveway. Even though the vehicles may force some people into the street. Does OP allow parking on the sidewalk? on FacebookShare Hello,

Thanks for reaching out. The Vision Zero project is midway through the planning process, and the project team is hard at work drafting recommendations for how to improve traffic safety in Oak Park. Findings from crash data, policy review, community engagement and discussions with key stakeholders are all supporting the development of the plan. Learn more aboutthe project’s findings under the “Documents” section on this page (www.engageoakpark.com/visionzero). The planning process will continue into this fall. So far, the project team has gathered and analyzed more than 900 pieces of community feedback through survey responses and open house activities. Residents will have more opportunities to provide feedback on the draft plan before it is finalized. Visit the Public Works Department’s booth at A Day in Our Village on Sun., June 2, to learn more about Vision Zero’s progress and details about the next public open house. You can also email publicworks@oak-park.us for more information about the Vision Zero project.

Thank you for contacting us with your question. Pavement markings will be applied to all of the speed humps that were installed this fall as part of the Village’s annual street resurfacing project. Signs indicating a speed hump will also be installed in the near future.
Thank you for your contribution!
