Community input is wanted by the Montgomery Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) surrounding the development of a Regional Safety Action Plan.
The initiative will cover portions of Montgomery, Elmore and Autauga Counties, as well as the cities and towns within each county.
The plan is designed to address roadway fatalities and serious injuries affecting motorists, pedestrians, bicyclists and transit riders in the Montgomery area.
The MPO emphasizes the importance of public participation in shaping the Regional Safety Action Plan.
