Roanoke County, Botetourt County and the Town of Vinton are collaborating on a Comprehensive Safety Action 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, including pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists, commercial vehicle operators, transit riders and micromobility users.
After two rounds of community meetings and surveys in Spring and Summer 2024, Roanoke County wants your feedback on the draft Comprehensive Safety Action Plan that includes proposed solutions for high crash intersections and corridors in Roanoke County.
Read and comment on the draft Plan at www.RoanokeCountyVA.gov/SS4A until Jan. 16. Next steps include:
- Jan. 21 at 6 p.m.: Roanoke County Planning Commission Work Session on comments received;
- Feb. 4 at 7 p.m.: Roanoke County Planning Commission Public Hearing on the draft Plan; and
- Feb. 25: Roanoke County Board of Supervisors Public Hearing on the draft Plan and consideration of its adoption as part of the Roanoke County 200 Plan.
