PUBLIC WORKSHOPS Public Workshop 1, April 22, 2023 On April 22, 2023, the first West Orange Vision Zero Public Workshop was held at Washington School. Members of the community were invited to learn about current road safety conditions in West Orange, and were given tools to add their own input including a community survey and an interactive map where they could identify areas of interest. Additionally, a pledge to be a safe driver was provided (both physically and online). All materials were presented in English and Spanish versions. EZ Ride TMA, the West Orange Pedestrian Safety Advisory Board and the Nikhil Badlani Foundation also had booths where community members could engage and discuss road safety awareness, and there were activities for kids including face painting and coloring pages. Public Workshop 2, June 3, 2023 The West Orange Street Fair on June 3, 2023 hosted food vendors, craftspeople and many other booths and attracted a robust turnout. One booth at the street fair was home to the West Orange Vision Zero Action Plan team, including representatives of both the New Jersey Department of Transportation and NV5. Members of the public were invited to take the survey on their personal devices or on a tablet, as well as to add locations to the online interactive map or the physical map where there were safety concerns or desired improvements. Common themes community members mentioned included elements such as sidewalk gaps, speeding hotspots, illegal parking, safe routes to school and more. Survey responses and map markups from both workshops are summarized in the description of outreach tools earlier in this report. 54 WEST ORANGE TOWNSHIP: VISION ZERO ACTION PLAN
