Vision Zero comes to the 104th Precinct

By Gabriel Rom

The road traffic safety project Vision Zero is coming to the 104th Precinct. Over the next two weeks, the city Department of Transportation, along with the officers of the 104th Precinct, will be conducting an educational and enforcement initiative.

During the first week, the program will be directed toward getting the word out to the public about Vision Zero and its core mission and objectives. Officers from the 104th, along with DOT personnel, will be stationed at the busiest intersections throughout Woodhaven and Ridgewood. Informational material will be provided.

In the second week of the initiative, the precinct will focus on enforcement, targeting hazardous violations such as speeding, improper turns and texting while driving.

The Vision Zero Initiative will run daily through Sunday, Oct. 25.
