Summary

Spring Hill opened a project webpage, survey and interactive map for its Safe Streets for All (SS4A) grant work and said the first advisory committee meeting will be scheduled in late January.

The city announced the launch of its Safe Streets for All (SS4A) project webpage, interactive map and public survey at the Jan. 9 meeting and encouraged residents to submit concerns and sign up for email updates.

Staff said HDR is the consultant supporting the safety-action-plan work and has produced a video (to be posted on the project page) and an interactive map where residents can drop pins indicating safety concerns such as missing sidewalks, bus-stop problems or areas needing traffic-calming. Staff invited residents to join the project distribution list and encouraged neighborhood outreach to gather input.

Why it matters: the SS4A program is a federal initiative that funds planning and/or small capital improvements to reduce road fatalities and serious injuries; community input will guide prioritization of safety projects and potential grant-funded improvements.

What’s next: staff said it will convene an advisory committee of about 20 stakeholders (city, county, schools, businesses) and expects to hold the first advisory meeting in late January; staff asked council to identify a high-school student or other youth representative if possible.
