Regional Vision Zero Action Plan

Public Involvement Process 

The NVCOG staff have crafted a public engagement plan that allows ample opportunities for meaningful feedback from a broad and diverse audience. 

Stakeholder Meetings 

During the summer of 2025, NVCOG held a series of stakeholder meetings in its member municipalities to gather input from local staff, including police and fire chiefs, public works directors, and chief elected officials. These participants work directly with the causes and impacts of traffic crashes and provided valuable insight to inform the study.

Share your Thoughts

The draft Vision Zero Action Plan is available on the documents tab, and more information about the plan and the data we used to put it together can be found at the NVision Zero Hub Site.

Comments were welcomed via email, phone, or mail, or during the TTAC meeting on February 4, 2026. The public was also invited to the February 20, 2026 Board meeting to share comments directly with the elected officials responsible for endorsing this plan and helping us get it implemented. 

A Culture of Safety

The completion of the Vision Zero Action Plan is just the very start of the work to eliminate traffic fatalities and serious injuries in the Naugatuck Valley. Because of this, we invite the public to share concerns and ask questions not just in the lead up to the plan’s adoption but at any time.

Via Email – If you have a concern you’d like to bring to the attention of the NVCOG Board, please send to us at info@nvcogct.gov. Include the location, details, and a way to get in contact so we can learn more.

Via Telephone – If you’d prefer, you can call the NVCOG office and share your thoughts. You can reach us at (203) 757-0535.

In Person – You can share concerns or ideas with both the NVCOG Transportation Technical Advisory Committee or the NVCOG Board during the public comment periods of these meetings. This is the best way to ensure that we can understand any concerns or answer any questions quickly. The TTAC meets on the first Wednesday of even months, and the NVCOG Board meets the third Friday of every month.

NV Safety Plan Town Summary All Towns

This document is intended to guide our actions between now and 2030, but more than a list of projects it is intended to be a framework within which we can work on the most pressing issues.

To make sure we can be responsive to changing situations, the plan allows us the flexibility to study and identify new areas of concern, as well as to celebrate the wins across the region improving infrastructure safety. For this reason, comments and questions about Vision Zero can be shared at any time, not just in the lead up to plan adoption by the NVCOG Board.
