Bennet Safety Action Plan

Help Shape Bennet’s Safety Action Plan  

The City of Bennet is developing a Safety Action Plan (SAP) with one clear goal: zero traffic-related serious injuries or fatalities. 

While Bennet is fortunate to have seen very few serious traffic incidents and no fatalities in recent years, we believe in being proactive and keeping our community safe.

We need your help to keep Bennet safe. Your experiences and observations are vital to understanding how our streets, sidewalks, and intersections feel to people who use them every day.

Project Timeline: 

Spring-Summer 2025 – Visioning and Safety Analysis 

The initial phase will begin with a State of the System Analysis, which will include a review of existing plans, policies, and crash data. The project team will work with City staff and stakeholders to identify key features and concerns of Bennet’s transportation network. This will assist the project team in developing the vision, goals and actions for the Bennet SAP. 

Fall 2025 – Draft Plan Development 

The project team will begin drafting the implementation matrix of the Bennet SAP, including recommendations for roadway improvements, transportation projects, policies, and programs. The public will have the opportunity to review the goals, strategies, and the Measures of Effectiveness. 

Winter 2025 – Final Plan Development 

The final plan will focus on further refining the SAP’s content by asking City leaders, technical stakeholders, and the community to review the plan in its entirety. After this review, the SAP will be sent to City Council for approval. 

Implementation – Winter 2025 – Onward 

Although the project will be completed, the process will continue as the goals and strategies are implemented from the SAP as funding allows
