The City of Sacramento is undertaking an update of the 2018 Vision Zero Action Plan. A recent Sacramento City Express article, Sacramento begins Vision Zero update, launches crash data dashboard, provides a summary. The dashboard has been available since March (SacCity crash dashboard).
Getting Around Sacramento author Dan Allison is participating in the stakeholder group, wearing the Sacramento Transit Advocates and Riders (STAR) hat. Safety from traffic violence is a key part of encouraging transit use, since people need to walk or bicycle to and from transit stops and stations. Dan has attended three Vision Zero meetings, April 7, 2025 Task Force #1, June 2, 2025 Task Force #2 (the stakeholder group), and June 18, 2025 Working Group (combined Task Force and Technical Advisory).
The slides from these meetings are presented below as slideshows.

How is this update any different from the earlier hogwash? I can see no difference before and after.

The City of Sacramento has 44million ++++ in the red + 1.5 BILLION owed for employe retirement benefits. What is this update to the Vision Zero Action Plan going to cost$$$$. I believe there was an article in the INSIDE SACRAMENTO that pedestrian deaths INCREASED not decreased! The OVERVIEW for the plan states a change in the infrastructure. What the City means changing the flow of traffic to a stand-still. The Franklyn Blvd. new paving and side walks looks good. It is ok to add bike lanes but to change the traffic flow from two lanes on each side to one lane is dumb and foolish. There are thousands of cars that use Franklyn Blvd. but I see very bikes and no predestrian traffic. Dumb policy that does not work!!!

I completely disagree with this comment, but it is true that a number of people feel this way.
