Cupertino City Council approves Vision Zero plan to combat frequent traffic fatalities

There’s a car crash in Cupertino about every three days, city data shows. Officials and advocates are trying to change that.

The Cupertino City Council unanimously passed the city’s Vision Zero plan earlier this month, joining a network of more than 60 cities in a national movement to end traffic-related fatalities and severe injuries. The plan aims to reach a net zero in deaths and severe injuries by 2040 through adding safety improvements to several intersections.
