Monroe County creates New York State's first Community Traffic Safety Team to address road safety and traffic fatalities.

Monroe County has formed New York State's first Community Traffic Safety Team to enhance road safety and reduce traffic fatalities, particularly during National Pedestrian Safety Month. Led by County Executive Adam Bello, the team will analyze traffic concerns, assess road designs, and promote public awareness. With 47 annual fatalities and over 5,000 injuries from traffic crashes, the team emphasizes community input and will meet quarterly starting in January. Residents can report concerns via a hotline.
