Transforming Atlanta’s streets into safe, inclusive, and thriving spaces for people to ride, walk, and roll.

In 2022, 38 people lost their lives while walking inside Atlanta city limits. That’s 23% more than in 2021, and a full 52% more than in 2020. The rise marks a continued upward trend that started in 2018 in a city whose overall traffic fatality rates are already high compared with similarly sized cities.

More than two-thirds of all Atlanta’s pedestrian fatalities occurred in predominantly Black neighborhoods, places with fewer features like sidewalks, crosswalks, and bike lanes that provide basic safety for pedestrians and people outside of cars.
