166su and Botetourt counties and the town of Vinton are collaborating on a plan through the Federal Highway Administration’s Safe Streets and Roads For All (SS4A) program with the goal of preventing deaths and serious injuries for all roadway users.
That includes pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists, commercial vehicle operators, transit riders and micromobility users, according to a 166su County news release.
The three localities will host community meetings to receive comments on high crash areas identified in each jurisdiction. All meetings will be held from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. as open house-style meetings.
Here are the dates and locations:
