RICHMOND —Take a survey to help the city of Richmond figure out where traffic safety hazards exist around town.
Officials are asking the public to take the survey as part of efforts to improve safety for motorists, pedestrians, bicyclists and BART and bus riders. Officials will use the information in their evaluations and to help prioritize locations for a more detailed review of potential issues related to design, maintenance and other factors.
The 10-question online survey is at www.surveymonkey.com/s/RichmondPublic-TrafficSafety.
For more information, e-mail Jim West of Kimley-Horn and Associates at jim.west@kimley-horn.com or Steven Tam of the city of Richmond at steven_tam@ci.richmond.ca.us.
