Vision Zero is a strategy to eliminate all traffic fatalities and severe injuries, while increasing safe, healthy, equitable mobility for all.
In 2019, the Texas Transportation Commission set an objective for TxDOT to end all fatalities on Texas roads by 2050. The commission also set a goal of cutting fatal crashes in half by 2035, which would reduce annual fatalities to about 1,800.
Since 2017, accidents involving serious injuries have remained relatively stagnant, while accidents involving fatalities dipped, then returned to one of the highest in the last near-decade.
Loop 410 has consistently seen the highest number of fatal crashes over the past six years.
