WHAT IS THE CORTEZ SAFETY ACTION PLAN?

The Cortez Comprehensive Safety Action Plan provides a roadmap to achieve zero traffic fatalities and serious injuries in Cortez for all modes of transportation, including walking, biking, and driving.​

The project is led by the City of Cortez and Cortez Police Department and funded by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Safe Streets for All program.​

The plan includes input from the community on safety issues, crash analysis, and recommendations for future safety improvement projects.
