August Edition: In-Person Hangout Thursday 8/3, Vision Zero Action Plan and Community Events
Hello, neighbor!
Happy Summer! We've seen a lot of work get done so far this year and we are going to celebrate that by having an in-person gathering tomorrow August 3 at the Zeppelin Hall Beer Garden from 6pm-9pm. Come join us, bring your ideas, and make new friends!
Take Action
Hudson County has announced the Vision Zero Safety Action Plan. Last fall, Hudson County Complete Streets advocated for the county to apply for the grant program and was awarded the grant earlier this year.
There will be a large outreach campaign over the next several months. You can sign up to stay up to date and find more resources over at hcnj.us/visionzero.
