Wes Kumfer (UNC), Shelly Baldwin (WTSC), and Nic Ward (MSU, director Center for Health and Safety Culture) are looking for authors to contribute to a special edition of Frontiers in Future Transportation entitled, “Vision Zero: The safe system approach and traffic safety culture.” This special international edition will focus on the Safe System approach and creating a positive traffic safety culture to achieve Vision Zero.

A PDF with submission details and example topics can be found here. A publication schedule is being established to facilitate publication of this special edition by summer 2022.

“This special edition would focus on the Safe System approach and creating a positive safety culture to achieve Vision Zero. While a focus would be on the emergence of a Vision Zero approach within the USA, this edition will also explore insights from other countries and cities (e.g., Sweden, Netherlands, Australia, Bogota, Addis Ababa) that have adopted forms of Vision Zero. To broaden our thinking, we hope to have contributors from different countries, disciplines, and safety-related domains.”
