YVCOG Safety Survey

The Yakima Valley Conference of Governments (YVCOG) is developing their Regional Safety Action Plan. This plan aims to help its member jurisdictions identify goals and strategies to make their streets safer for people of all ages and abilities to walk, bicycle, use a wheelchair or personal mobility device, take public transit, and drive. 

This survey asks you a series of questions about how you get around and your transportation safety concerns and priorities, followed by a web map where you can pinpoint locations that need safety improvements. Your responses will be used to better understand current transportation safety conditions in the Yakima Valley and to inform plan recommendations. This survey should take about 5-10 minutes to complete. Please complete this survey by October 31, 2025. 

You can find out more about the YVCOG Regional Safety Action Plan Yakima Valley, Let's Build Safer Streets | Yakima Valley COG, WA or by contacting Alan Adolf, Regional Transportation Manager at transportation@yvcog.us.
