Archie Safety Action Plan

Archie Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) Safety Action Plan

As part of the U.S. Department of Transportation Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant program, the City of Archie is developing a Safety Action Plan (SAP) for our streets. The SAP will include traffic safety strategies based on input from the community and traffic crash data to reduce and ultimately eliminate crashes that result in injuries and deaths. It will also include recommendations for traffic-related strategies that will benefit the City and all those who use its roadways. 

Community input will be a cornerstone of the Safety Action Plan development process, so that the plan reflects the unique needs and priorities of residents and others who travel around or through Archie. By gathering feedback, we can better understand your everyday experiences and safety concerns. We welcome you to share your thoughts through the 5-minute online survey below or contact us at cityadmin@cityofarchie.org.

  • Support Livability: Safe transportation infrastructure is essential for maintaining a high quality of life and supporting economic development.
  • Safer Truck Routes: Identify safe routes for trucks to travel through Archie to avoid areas with high pedestrian and bicycle usage.
