The Bicycle Coalition of Philadelphia has been pushing for safer streets for years. In the lead up to the 2015 primary, Executive Director Alex Doty sits down with PW to talk the importance of Vision Zero and how an engaged electorate is crucial to ensuring we have a City Council that pays attention to and addresses these issues.

As a reminder, Vision Zero is one of our 2015 Platform items. It is also one that has elicited personal requests from our donors. We can no longer ignore needless pedestrian and cycling deaths. The time is now.
