Today, the D.C. Highway Safety Office (HSO), District Department of Transportation (DDOT), and Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officially announced the District’s first Safety Corridors, a targeted traffic safety initiative aimed at reducing crashes and saving lives on high-risk roadways. The announcement took place during a press conference at F1 Arcade, which is located at the base of one of the corridors.

As 2024 comes to an end, the District of Columbia remains steadfast in its commitment to improving traffic safety and eliminating traffic fatalities and serious injuries on District roadways. While fatalities have increased in the post-COVID era, a promising decrease in major injuries illustrates progress towards the goal of Vision Zero.
