KEY TERMS Crash —A collision of a motor vehicle with another roadway user or fixed object. It may result in death, injury, or property damage. Safe System Approach —The USDOT adopted approach to prevent death and serious injuries through proactive, safer transportation planning practices. Serious Injury — A severe injury that is incapacitating or disabling that typically requires hospitalization and transport to a medical facility. Vulnerable Road Users —A person utilizingthe transportation network nottraveling in a vehicle, and therefore at greater risk of fatality or serious injury in a crash. This includes, but not limited to, bicyclists, pedestrians, people on scooters, and wheelchairs users. Area of Persistent Poverty — Any census tract with a poverty rate of at least 20 percent as measured by the 2014— 2018 5-year data series available form the American Community Survey of the Bureau of the Census. For purposes of this Comprehensive Safety Action Plan, Underserved Communitywill use the same definition as Area of Persistent Poverty. v ABBREVIATIONS ACS: American Community Survey AADT: Annual Average Daily Traffic APP: Areas of Persistent Poverty CAR: Crash Analysis Reporting System CSAP: Comprehensive Safety Action Plan EPDO: Equivalent Property Damage Only FDOT: Florida Department of Transportation FHWA: Federal Highway Administration GIS: Geographic Information System HIN: High -Injury Network KA: Fatal or Serious Injury PDO: Property Damage Only RSD: Road Safety Dashboard SS4A: Safe Streets and Roads for All USDOT: United States Department of Transportation VMT: Vehicle Miles Traveled VRU: Vulnerable Road Users vi i INTRODUCTION The City of Aventura Comprehensive Safety Action Plan (CSAP) was developed to help the City achieve their goal of zero traffic -related deaths and serious injuries on the streets of Aventura. The CSAP will assist City Staff, City leadership, and other local partners in making decisions when identifying and planning projects that will improve the safety of all roadway users in Aventura. The identified projects serve as a menu of potential countermeasures to address both historical and future safety concerns. This list includes a range of short-term to long-term projects, recognizing that budget and resource constraints may prevent the implementation of every project. In an effort to support this goal, the City of Aventura sought out funding from the United States Department of Transportation's (USDOT's) Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Safe Streets and Roads forAll (SS4A) grant program. The grant funding obtained from this program was to prepare a comprehensive analysis of the transportation and multimodal infrastructure in the City of Aventura. The purpose of the analysis is to identify areas of safety concern, where attention and safety funds could be directed to improve safety within the City. The City of Aventura was awarded an SS4A grant in the year 2022 grant cycle. The CSAP has been prepared in accordance with the FHWA's SS4A grant program. The chapters, data, engagement, and performance metrics outlined herein were developed to adhere to the requirements of a Comprehensive Safety Action Plan, as defined by the SS4A Notice of Funding Opportunity. WHAT JISION ZERO? Vision Zero is the idea that zero traffic related deaths and serious injuries is both a goal and a mindset. Vision Zero prioritizes safe road design, enforcement, education, and community engagement as core principles to achieve the goal and as a framework to approach safety concerns. It emphasizes a holistic approach to transportation safety recognizing that human error is inevitable, but roadways should be designed such that it minimizes the consequences of those mistakes. It represents a comprehensive approach to not only improving safety, but quality of life and mobility through the reduction of crash - related injuries. UNvv_n� (ANDING THL jAFE SYSTEM APPROACH The Safe Systems Approach is built on the idea that humans make mistakes on roadways, but that these mistakes should not result in death or serious injury. This approach champions the idea that roadway elements and support infrastructure should be managed AVENTURA Safe Streets and Roads 4 All (SS4A) Stud to account for human error. The six principles that form the basis of the Safe System Approach are the following: 1. Deaths and serious injuries are unacceptable 2. Humans make mistakes 3. Humans are vulnerable 4. Responsibility is shared 5. Safety is proactive 6. Redundancy is crucial These principles are applied to create programming that considers human error, ultimately resulting in programs and transportation networks that are better positioned to achieve the goal of zero roadway deaths and serious injuries. The Safe System Approach is heavily focused on five complementary objectives: 1. Safer People - Focus on user safety in the transportation system by encouraging responsible behaviors and creating system conditions that allow for safe travel. 2. Safer Roads - Design roadways to accommodate potential user mistakes and reduce injury severity and fatalities. 3. Safer Vehicles - Improve accessibility to systems and features in vehicles to reduce injury severity and fatalities. 4. Safer Speeds -Work to reduce travel speeds within the transportation system through design, education, and targeted enforcement. 5. Post -Crash Care - Improve chances of users surviving a crash event through efficient emergency care and preventing secondary crashes. pF�N51BILRY IS SM�O Source.. RNA. 2 VISION ZERO IN AVENTURA: OUR COMMITMENT City leadership plays an important role in helping develop, implement, and model Vision Zero in their communities. City leadership helps champion initiatives, set safety goals, and gather the support of the local community. City officials are instrumental in bringing ideas from the public and key stakeholders to work towards safety improvements the community can take pride in. The City of Aventura City Commission passed Resolution No. 2024-51 on September 3,d, 2024, which outlines the City's commitment to Vision Zero and their goal of eliminating severe traffic injuries or fatalities on City of Aventura Roadways by the year 2030. 3 aAFrr ' ANA' YSIS The City of Aventura CSAP is data -driven, informed primarily by historical crash data reported on roadways within the City. Reviewing and monitoring crash data will help inform the type of improvements and guide the spending of safety improvement funds. This section dives deep into the historical crash trends in Aventura, including contributing factors, driver behavior, and geospatial analysis. Crash patterns presented in this section will be the focus of infrastructure and policy improvements. Ckk%,vn i nr-NuS Aimu rrt i TLr(N,-v HISTORICAL CRASH DATA REVIEW Crash records were obtained for the City of Aventura from the Signal Four Analytics (S4A) crash database. A total of 6,766 crashes were recorded within the City of Aventura from 2018 to 2023. Of those, 3 crashes resulted in at least one fatality and 97 crashes resulted in at least one incapacitating injury. The distribution of crashes by injury severity level is shown in the pie chart below in Figure 1. Fatal and serious injury crashes accounted for approximately 1.5% of all crashes observed during the six -year analysis period. 310.04%^ r97 1.43% 83, 7.14% 709, 10.48 % ■ Fatal (within 30 days) ■ Incapacitating Injury ■ Non -Incapacitating Injury ■ Possible Injury ■ No Injury Figure 1: Distribution of Crashes by Injury Severity (2018 — 2023) 0 On average, there were 1,128 crashes per year, which is equivalent to one crash occurring approximately every 8 hours. There were three fatal crashes resulting in four fatalities and 97 incapacitating injury crashes resulting in 117 severe injuries during the six -year analysis period, as shown on Figure 2. Two of the three fatal crashes occurred in 2023 alone, the most recent year of crash data analyzed. The year 2020 reported the lowest crash frequency, potentially due to reduced traffic exposure from activity pattern changes attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic. 1,400 1,200 1,000 800 600 400 200 0 2018 Fatal (within 30 days) 0 Incapacitating Injury 23 Non -Incapacitating Injury 92 Possible Injury 108 No Injury 1,011 2019 0 19 73 126 989 2020 1 15 63 102 653 2021 0 10 69 120 913 2022 0 15 86 143 941 2023 2 15 100 110 967 ■ No Injury ■ Possible Injury ■ Non -Incapacitating Injury ■ Incapacitating Injury ■ Fatal (within 30 days) Figure 2: Annual Crash Counts by Injury Severity (2018-2023) 5 Crashes can be translated into societal impact cost values using FDOT's Average Unit Crash Costs. The estimated average annual cost of all crashes within the City of Aventura was $53.6M. Given the elevated societal cost attributed to fatal and incapacitating injury crashes, an estimated $19.8M (approximately 37%) in annual cost of crashes was due to fatal and incapacitating injury crashes alone. Figure 3 presents the crash density for all crash severities and Figure 4 presents the crash density for severe crashes onlywithin the City limits.

Table 2 summarizes these crash characteristics, detailing the percentage of total crashes and the percentage of severe crashes associated with each characteristic. Table 2: Freauent Crash Characteristics and their Share of Overall and Severe Crashes Aging Driver 27% 23% Distracted Driver 18% 21% Intersection Related 72% 63% Lane Departure Related 32% 22% Nighttime Conditions 21% 27% Single Vehicle Crash 11% 45% Vulnerable Road User Involved 4% 47% Aging Driver crashes involve a driver whose age at the time of crash is 65 years or older. Distracted Driver crashes involved distractions which may have influenced driver's performance. Example distractions include cell phones, navigation devices, texting, among others. Intersection -related crashes are those that occur within the area of influence of an intersection approximately as 250 feet in any direction from an intersection. Lane departure crashes involve a vehicle crossing an edge line, a center line, or otherwise leaving the travel lane(s) of a roadway. Lane departure crashes may include head-on crashes with opposing traffic, off -road crashes with fixed objects, and rollover crashes. Nighttime crashes generally refer to crashes that occur between 7:00 PM and 6:59 AM. Single vehicle crashes are crashes that only involve one vehicle, even if another driver may have contributed to a crash occurring. Many single vehicle crashes are also classified as lane departure crashes, since they most often get reported because of the single vehicle rolling over or crashing into a fixed object. Crashes involving Vulnerable Road User, that is pedestrians, bicyclists (including e- bikes), motorcyclists, moped riders, and other micromobility users such as scooter riders. The complete definition of VRU can be found in section 316.027(1)(b) of the Florida Statute. Some of the less frequent crashes were noted due to their disproportionate involvement in severe crashes. Crashes involvingVRUs are eleven times (11x) more likely to result in fatalities and incapacitating injuries. In addition, crashes involving drug use are ten times (10x) more likely to produce severe outcomes. Similarly, crashes involving alcohol use are four times (4x) more likely to result in fatalities or severe injuries. Last, speeding related crashes are nine times (9x) more likely to produce severe outcomes. 9 TYPES OF COLLISION The most common crash type reported in the six -year analysis period was rear end, which accounted for 36% overall crashes and 16% of fatal and incapacitating injury crashes. Sideswipes crashes contributed to 19% of crashes overall and 5% of fatal and incapacitating injury crashes. Left turn crashes contributed to 9% of overall crashes and 15% of fatal and incapacitating injury crashes. Angle crashes accounted for 5% of overall crashes and 2% of fatal and incapacitating injury crashes. In addition, 18% of overall crashes and 28% of fatal and incapacitating injury crashes were classified as having a crash type of Other, which includes single -vehicle crashes, parked vehicle collisions, and a mix of other crash types. Notably, pedestrian crashes accounted for 1 % of overall crashes and 13% of fatal and incapacitating injury crashes. Crashes occurred most frequently along major roadways. The frequency of all crash types is summarized in Figure 5.

The environmental factor with the largest difference between involvement in overall crashes versus severe crashes in the City of Aventura during the six - year analysis period was lighting conditions. While 21 % of overall crashes happened under dark and unlit conditions, 27% of severe crashes occurred under dark and unlit conditions, as shown in Figure 6. 10 Total Crashes [N = 6,666 events] ■ Nighttime ■ Daytime ■ Wet Surface ■ Dry Surface Severe Crashes [N =100 events] ■ Nighttime ■ Daytime ■ Wet Surface ■ Dry Surface Figure 6: Comparison of Total and Severe Crashes for each Environmental Factor Risky driving behaviors such as speeding, aggressive and distracted driving, fatigue, seat belt misuse, and alcohol or drug impairment significantly elevate the likelihood of fatal or serious crashes. In Aventura, distracted driving emerged as the most prevalent among these factors, contributing to approximately 17.9% of all crashes and 21 % of severe ones. Aggressive driving was linked to 1.9% of all crashes and 10% of severe incidents, while speeding played a role in 0.7% of crashes overall and 6% of those classified as severe. 11 AVENTURA fe Streets and Roads 4 All (SS4A) Stud Alcohol involvement was reported in 0.7% of crashes, with 3% resulting in serious outcomes. Crash summary pie charts are included as Figure 7 and Figure 8.

While total crash counts generally followed patterns of daily, weekly, and seasonal activity, the analysis of severe crashes helped uncover specific periods with elevated risk for fatal or severe injury crashes. CRASHES BY TIME OF DAY The distribution of crashes by time of day is shown in Figure 9 below. The highest crash frequency on any given 2-hour period was observed from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM for non - severe crashes.

The otherweekdays each contributed 15% or more of total crashes. In contrast, weekends saw slightly fewer incidents. Saturday accounted for 759 crashes (11 %) and Sunday accounted for 632 crashes (9%). When focusing on severity, Monday had the highest number of severe crashes (21), followed closely by Tuesday and Friday with 19 crashes each.

February had the highest share of severe crashes (13% or 13 crashes), followed by January and April (11 % or 11 crashes each). In contrast, June recorded the lowest number of severe crashes (2% or 2 crashes). Overall, severe crashes remained below 13% each month, suggesting a fairly stable pattern with small seasonal variations.

These focus areas are based on key crash types that are overrepresented in fatal and severe injury crashes during the six -year study period. The focus areas include: 1. Vulnerable Road Users 2. Nighttime Crashes 3. Distracted Driver Crashes 4. Left Turn Crashes 5. Rear End Crashes By exploring the spatial distribution and factors behind these crash types, this section aims to inform strategies that address these contributing factors. VULNERABLE ROAD USERS Vulnerable road users (VRU) such as pedestrians, bicyclists, motorcyclists, and moped riders are at greater risk of fatality or incapacitating injury in the event of a crash due to their lack of physical protection, higher exposure to impact forces, and smaller size compared to motor vehicle users. From 2018 to 2023, there were 290 crashes involving VRUs in Aventura. Forty-seven (47) of those crashes resulted in fatalities or severe injuries. Figure 12 illustrates the share of severe and non -severe crashes for five different road user types. Compared to motor vehicle crashes, of which fewer than 1 % result in a fatality or serious injury, VRU crashes are disproportionally more severe. In Aventura, 21 % of pedestrian and bicycle crashes, 19% of moped crashes, and 15% of motorcycle crashes led to fatal or incapacitating injury outcomes. 17 100% 90% 80% U) 70% U) P U 60% 50% cc C 40% U 30% d 20% 10% 0% ■ Severe ■ Non -Severe Automobile Bicycle 53 15 6,423 Moped 5 Motorcycle Pedestrian 9 18 60 86 Figure 12: Percentage of Severe and Non -Severe Crashes by Mode (2018-2023) Figure 13 presents a pedestrian and bicycle injury crash map for the City of Aventura. Crashes are most prevalent along US-1/Biscayne Boulevard, particularly between NE 203rd Street and NE 207th Street. Other high -frequency pedestrian and bicycle crash locations include Country Club Drive, access roads near Aventura Mall, and transit stations. These areas pose significant challenges for pedestrians and cyclists, including high vehicle speeds, unprotected midblock crossings, and limited street lighting.

In addition, nighttime conditions often involve human factors such as fatigue, impaired driving, and speeding, all of which contribute to increased crash risks. In the City of Aventura, a total of 1,424 crashes occurred during the six -year analysis period between 7:00 PM and 6:59 AM. Twenty-seven (27) of these nighttime crashes resulted in fatal or serious injury outcomes. Fifty-two percent (52%) of fatal and serious injury crashes involved a VRU. Frequent crash types include single vehicle, off road, pedestrian, and rear end. Four (4) nighttime severe crashes occurred under wet road surface conditions. A total of three (3) severe crashes involved impaired drivers. Figure 14 shows the location of fatal and severe injury nighttime crashes occurring in the City of Aventura from 2018 to 2023. Most crashes occurred under dark but lighted conditions. Two sections of US-1/13iscayne Boulevard stand out for their high frequency of severe collisions at nighttime: between NE 203rd Street and NE 213th Street, and between NE 186th Street/NE 185th Street and William Lehman Causeway. 20 Pet CITY OF AVENTURA, FL Nighttime Conditions Fatal or Serious Injury Crashes 0 0.13 0.25 0.5 0.75 1 Miles Legend Brightline Station School O Dark - Lighted • Dark - Not Lighted ® Dawn/Dusk A' I V Holiday or - - — — — — l-.St--—— NF. 213[h st O O as 0 A1A h NE 2071h St eks N Coun(r OPromedade Y Club Dr Golden Beach O Shops Parking O Lot � O Blvd t Je^`eta Don Sofrer Exercise Trail O Turnherry Isle Golf Course Aventura O ass O C m Djus O "1 "r.aa llr D!m:fcura of vy 0 Sunny Isles NE 171st St Beach NE 176th St NE 154th St 7- Figure 14: Map of Fatal and Serious Injury Crashes during Nighttime 21 i DISTRACTED DRIVER CRASHES Distracted driving can be defined as any activity that takes the driver's hands off the wheel, eyes off the road, or mind off the task of driving. Broadly, distractions are categorized into internal and external types. Internal distractions originate from within the vehicle and include actions such as texting or calling on a cell phone, adjusting the radio or GPS, eating or drinking, interacting with passengers, or even daydreaming. On the other hand, external distractions come from outside the vehicle and may include looking at billboards, rubbernecking at crash scenes, observing pedestrians or cyclists, or being distracted by unusual weather conditions or roadside events. Both internal and external distractions tend to be more prevalent in urban settings such as Aventura due to abundant visual stimuli and frequent stops. Over the six -year analysis period, there were 1,213 crashes involving a distracted driver in the City of Aventura. Twenty-one (21) of these crashes resulted in a fatality or serious injury, with VRUs involved in 62% of such crashes. Common crash types include single vehicle incidents, pedestrian collisions, and rear end crashes. Additionally, five fatal and incapacitating injury crashes involving a distracted driver occurred at nighttime. Figure 15 illustrates the locations of fatal and incapacitating injury crashes involving a distracted driver in the City of Aventura from 2018 to 2023. North of the William Lehman Causeway, severe distracted driving crashes are concentrated along US-1 /Biscayne Boulevard between NE 203rd Street and NE 213th Street. South of the causeway, incidents are more dispersed, though certain segments, such as NE 190th Street and US-1/Biscayne Boulevard, show occasional incidents. 22 CITY OF AVENTURA, FL Legend 1 V Brightline Station Distracted Driver School Fatal or Serious Injury Crashes 0 Distracted Driver Crashes 0 0.13 0.25 0.5 0.75 1 Miles '- Hnllday Dr — — — — — — — �.OSt---- �/ NE 213th St 0 as m A1A NE 207th Sc N c ks ountr i�i u Promedada Y CIu6 Dr Golden Beach Shops Parking Lot � Q 1-' Pven`Jraglvd Don 5offer Exercise Trail Turnberry Isle Golf Caurse Aventura 856 a � G a O _I OjusNE 185th 5[ SSt NE Dumfoundling 183rdgay 0 Po!nr East Dr Sunny Isles 12 Beach NE 171st St NE 170th St 174th 5' NE 154th St w z c 0 5 l_1 94 � In[raeoa seal igure 15: Map of Fatal and Serious Injury Crashes involving a Distracted Drive 23 LEFT TURN CRASHES Left -turn crashes occur when a vehicle turns across oncoming traffic, typically at intersections or median openings. Contributing factors include obstructed sightlines, misjudged gaps, and the absence of protected left -turn signal phases. To mitigate these risks and reduce crash severity, safety countermeasures such as protected left -turn signals, buffered turn lanes, and roundabouts are commonly implemented. A total of 599 left -turn crashes were reported in the City of Aventura during the six -year analysis period. Among them, 15 resulted in fatalities or serious injuries. Of those 15 severe left -turn crashes, left -rear crashes were the most common, followed by left - entering, and left -exiting. Additionally, four severe left -turn crashes occurred under nighttime conditions. Figure 16 displays the locations of fatal and incapacitating injury left -turn crashes in Aventura from 2018 to 2023. These collisions, particularly those involving vehicles traveling southbound, are prevalent along the US-1 /Biscayne Boulevard corridor. This trend may be influenced by the presence of shopping centers and other trip generators located on the east side of US-1 /Biscayne Boulevard, which increase turning movements and potential conflict points. 24 CITY OF AVENTURA, FL Left Turn Crashes Fatal or Serious Injury Crashes 0 0.13 0.25 0.5 0.75 1 Miles Legend CU Brightline Station School ® J Eastbound Left 41 Northbound Left Southbound Left L► r Westbound Left ]v -- Nniiday 9r — — — — — — — - St — — — NE 213th St as 0 c � A1A NE 207th St Nc ks ountr Y CIu6 Dr Golden Beach Promedade Shops Parking Lot 4 Don Suffer Exercise Trail Turnberry Isle Golf Course Aventura 8S6 a � m o a O NE 190th St NE 188th St G z � m c a+ P0.

From 2018 to 2023, 16 incapacitating injury rear -end crashes occurred, with four taking place under nighttime conditions. In terms of driver behavior, three incapacitating injury rear -end crashes involved a distracted driver. Teenage drivers were involved in five incapacitating injury crashes. In addition, aging drivers (65 years and older) were involved in four severe year- end crashes. Among VRUs, two severe rear -end crashes involved moped riders, and one involved a motorcyclist. Figure 17 illustrates the severe injury rear end crashes within Aventura. Many rear end crashes occurred on US-1 /Biscayne Boulevard, which serves as a principle arterial and the major north -south roadway within the city. Other locations with high frequency of severe rear -end crashes include the intersection of Point East Drive and US-1 /Biscayne Boulevard, the intersection of NE 203rd Street and NE 29th Court, and the William Lehman Causeway eastbound ramp on NE 192nd Street. 26 CITY OF AVENTURA, FL Rear -End Crashes Fatal or Serious Injury Crashes 0 0.13 0.25 0.5 0.75 1 Miles Legend P Brightline Station School Rear End Crashes N _ Holiday or r — -- — — — — ` - NE 213th St 4114 as 0 c � AM h A m NE 207th SC Promedade N country Club or Golden Beach Shops Parking Lot a awd Pven`J Don Suffer Turnberry Isle Exercise Trail Golf Caurse AvellOi4ra 6 ;k c y O NE 190th St -o z m NE 188th St w P� P Ojus NE 185th s[ Dumjoundlioy NE 183rd St By r 3" aornr East Dr Sunny Isles NE 171st St Beach NE 170th St 174th S' NE 154th st 7- e Figure 17. Map of Fatal and Serious Injury Rear End Crashes 27 HIGH -INJURY NETWORK A High -Injury Network (HIN) is a targeted subset of roadways where a disproportionate number of severe and fatal crashes occur. To develop a HIN, various data is required, including historical crash records, roadway inventory, and traffic volumes. For the City of Aventura, crash data from 2018 to 2023 was sourced from S4A, while roadway and traffic data were obtained from City and Miami -Dade County records, and FDOT. Crashes were spatially assigned to intersections and segments using Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and police reports of fatal or incapacitating crashes were manually reviewed for accuracy. HIGH -RISK ROAD SEGMENTS The road segment HIN methodology involved evaluating each segment using three safety performance metrics: crash frequency, crash rate (adjusted for traffic volume and segment length), and the Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) value, which normalizes crash severity using cost -based weights. Segments were analyzed across three crash categories—fatal/incapacitating (KA), all injury (KABC), and total crashes. A combined rankingwas derived from the average of these metrics. Table 3 presents the HIN segments for the City of Aventura. Aventura's HIN extends for over 6 miles and includes various state and local road segments. In addition, Figure 18 presents a map with the location of the HIN segments. A total of five state road segments (i.e., S-1, ..., S-5) and eleven local road segments (i.e., L-1, ..., L-11) were included in the City's HIN. Eighty (80) fatal and serious injury crashes accounting for 80% of the total severe crashes during the six -year analysis period were assigned to these road segments. A total of 5,320 property damage and minor injury crashes occurred on HIN segments.

Intersections were categorized byjurisdiction including state or local. Fifteen state -maintained intersections and seven locally maintained intersections were identified as high -risk and included in the prioritization list for the City of Aventura. Table 4 summarizes the main characteristics of these intersections. In addition, Figure 19 illustrates their location. Collectively, these intersections accounted for 46 severe and 3,458 non -severe crashes during the six -year analysis period. EPDO values range from a high of 1,512 equivalent crashes at the intersection of US-1/Biscayne Boulevard and NE 186th Street to a low of 384 equivalent crashes at the intersection of NE 185th Street and NE 28th Court. 31 Table 4: State and Local High -Risk Intersections in Aventura S-1 US-1/Biscayne Blvd NE 186th St/NE 185th St Signal EG 4 1 59 3 4 44 4 3 48 3 3 36 433 1,512 S-2 US-1/Biscayne Blvd NE 195th St Signal 278 1,459 S-3 US-1/Biscayne Blvd NE 208th St/NE 207th St Signal Signal 239 1,385 S-4 US-1/Biscayne Blvd NE 187th St NE 196th St A 234 245 1,197 1,174 S-5 US-1/Biscayne Blvd Signal 3 1 53 S-6 US-1/Biscayne Blvd SR-856/William Lehman Causeway Signal 3 2 39 274 1,144 S-7 US-1/Biscayne Blvd Aventura Blvd Signal 3 2 34 330 1,117 S-8 US-1/Biscayne Blvd Ives Dairy Rd/Ne 203rd St Signal 4 3 30 238 1,069 S-9 US-1/Biscayne Blvd NE 191st St Signal 2 26 255 920 S-10 US-1/Biscayne Blvd NE 192nd St Two -Way Stop 3 2 28 76 794 S-11 US-1/Biscayne Blvd Point East Dr Signal 3 6 4 2 770 S-12 US-1/Biscayne Blvd NE 183rd St Signal 3 1 28 181 758 S-13 US-1/Biscayne Blvd NE 20500 Blk Signal 3 3 14 006 6IP 653 S-14 US-1/Biscayne Blvd NE 209th St Signal 4 1 21 145 568 S-15 US-1/Biscayne Blvd NE 210th St Two -Way STOP 3 2 13 46 461 L-1 NE 199th St/Aventura Blvd NE 29th Ct Two -Way STOP 4 2 5 18 1610 L-2 NE 199th St NE 29th Pt Signal 4 1 31 143 777 L-3 NE 29th Ave NE 188th St Signal 3 2 15 63 585 L-4 NE 207th St NE 30th Ave Signal 4 2 11 58 483 L-5 NE 208th St NE 28th Ave Two -Way STOP 4 0 20 57 416 L-6 W Country Club Dr William Lehman Cswy EB Ramp Signal 3 1 14 62 40 L-7 NE 185th St NE 28th Ct Signal 4 2 7 38 384 Note: �') KA—fatal/incapacitating injury (2)BC— Non -incapacitating injury (3) EPDO— Equivalent Property Damage Only 32 CITY OF AVENTURA, FL Legend N Prioritized Intersections Q Brightline Station School By Equivalent Minor Injury Crashes � Local Priority Inkerseckion 0 0.13 0.25 0.5 0.75 1 Miles � State Priority Intersection Holiday or r — — — — — — — - h F[. � — — NL 13Lh St -11 15 19 L-5 . qq S-3 49 N 207th St romedade hops Parking S $ Lot L 8 J ` fa gl 5-7.10 55 N Country Don Suffer Exercise Trail A1A Golden Beach Turn6erry Isle S-Z � Golf Course Aventura S-6 S-10 ash m •L6 S-9 0 NE 190th St a z � •L-3 St . d v NE 166th Ou S-4 pa OJ u s , S-1 Nei sth st 12 Dumfoundling NE 163rd St %1D Bay 5-11 _) '" r East of �t Iniracoa stal Sunny Isles Beach 0 Figure 19: Map of State and Local High -Risk Intersections in Aventura 33 COMMUNITY AND STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT STEERING COMMITTE' In support of the Comprehensive Safety Action Plan, the City of Aventura invited members of several local stakeholders to participate in a Steering Committee throughout the development of the Plan. In November 2024, the project team invited the following members to participate in the Steering Committee: • Hon. Denise Landman • Edgar Monserrat • Gary Pyott • Dimitry Shaposhnikof • Ed Weinstein, Esq. KICKOFF MEETING Avirtual kickoff meeting was held on November 13, 2024, with the Steering Committee. The members of the Steering Committee in attendance introduced themselves and the project team outlined the SS4A program, including the commitment to Vision Zero, the components of a Comprehensive Safety Action Plan, and the types of safety improvements that would be included in the Plan. City of Aventura staff explained the City's vision for the Comprehensive Safety Action Plan, with a focus on driving down fatalities within the City, especially on non -state roadways. The project team then provided insight on the Steering Committee's role for the project, including providing input, advocating for the project, and monitoring implementation of the safety countermeasures identified in the Comprehensive Safety Action Plan. The project team then shared the project schedule before opening the floor to initial thoughts from the Steering Committee. >ECONu MEETING A second virtual meeting with the Steering Committee was held on May 1, 2025. The members of the Steering Committee in attendance discussed historical crash trends including the concentration of incidents on US-1/Biscayne Boulevard and local streets, particularly near schools, and emphasized the need to focus on vulnerable road users. The discussion included crashes involving bicycles and electric scooters, with a call for accurate crash data to inform policy considerations. The high injury network (HIN) was introduced which identifies roadways and intersections that account for a majority of 34 severe crashes. The meeting ended with encouraging committee members to start observing the Citywith the insights gained from recent discussions. The Steering Committee will be crucial to the future success of the Comprehensive Safety Action Plan after it is adopted by the City Commission. The Steering Committee will assist the City in preparing the Annual Monitoring Report which will track the City's progress toward Vision Zero and will quantify the City's investment in safety improvements on the roadway network. PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT ACTIVITIES In addition to the historical crash analysis and identification of the high -injury network in the City of Aventura, the project team recognized the importance of engaging the users who travel in and around the City on a daily basis. The residents of the City of Aventura have local knowledge of areas where they feel unsafe walking, cycling, or driving even if there has not been a historical pattern of crashes at those locations. Through the identification of areas where community members feel unsafe or have experienced near - miss incidents, the project team can take a proactive approach to safety and recommend countermeasures to reduce the risk of a crash happening in the future. STAKEHOLDER MEETINGS The project team attended a Property Managers Breakfast which was hosted at the City Government Center the morning of Wednesday November 12, 2025. At this meeting the project team was able to introduce the project to the property managers who were then able to bring information back to residents within their respective properties. Additionally, a stakeholders event was held at the City Government Center the afternoon of Wednesday November 12th, 2025 where the public was invited out to provide feedback via an interactive survey and GIS map based comment map (details on the survey and map are in the following subsections). tartly HOU,:)t A CSAP open house was held on Thursday January 15, 2026 to present the project process and results to the public. This open house was also recorded and provided on the City website for on -demand public viewing. IIv FERAU I IVI= IvIHr rttut:sACK As an additional mechanism for soliciting public feedback on safety concerns within the City of Aventura, the project team developed an interactive GIS map of the City on the 35 AND PublicCoordinate platform (See Figure 20). PublicCoordinate allowed residents to voice their concerns and ideas even if they were not able to make comments at one of the in - person events. The PublicCoordinate page allowed users to place a point or a line on an interactive map with seven comment types available to most appropriately categorize their comment, such as "Safety Concern", "Near Miss Experience", or "Bicycle Route Improvement". A total of 41 comments were posted to the PublicCoordinate map made available via the City's Vision Zero webpage. Common safety concerns noted included pedestrian accessibility, vehicles performing illegal maneuvers, poor roadway lighting, and frequent heavy flooding during rain events. The following word cloud graphic shown in Figure 21 identifies the most cited safety and mobility concerns.

EQUITY CONSIDERATIONS Equity is a fundamental pillar of transportation safety, ensuring that all residents benefit from improvements designed to reduce crash risk and enhance mobilitywithout regard of their socioeconomic status or historical investment. This section examines disparities in transportation safety across the City of Aventura. Key considerations include the distribution of high -risk locations, comparative safety performance across different area types, and the relationship between underserved communities and crash trends. AREAF OF PERSISTENT POVE^TV A census tract is considered an Area of Persistent Poverty (APP) if the tract has a poverty rate of at least 20% or if the county in which the tract is located has 20% or more of the population living in poverty. According to these metrics, there were no census tracts within the City limits identified as Areas of Persistent Poverty. However, there were census tracts identified nearby the City limits that met the criteria. The neighboring census tracts identified as Areas of Persistent Poverty are illustrated in Figure 23. The map also shows in orange three priority segments that are assumed to be influenced by APP traffic: • S-1: US-1/Biscayne Avenue from NE 203rd Street to NE 207th St/NE 208th Street • S-2: US-1 /Biscayne Avenue from Point East Drive to NE 191 st Street • S-4: US-1/Biscayne Avenue from NE 209th Street to NE 213th Street These three US-1 /Biscayne Boulevard segments and their associated intersections may serve traffic from nearby census tracts classified as APP, located within one mile.

Figure 24 summarizes the number of severe crashes per year for APP and non-APP sites. As shown in Figure 24, the distribution of severe crashes varies by year with a slightly higher number of severe crashes occurring on non- APP-influenced sites (51 non-APP crashes vs. 49 APP crashes). 14 U) 12 U) U 10 8 V) 0 6 � 4 z 6 0 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 ■ Not Areas of Persistent Poverty -Areas of Persistent Poverty Figure 24: Severe Crashes by Location Type 2023 The distribution of severe crashes by road user type in APP vs. non-APP communities is shown in Figure 25. APP communities were shown to have a higher percentage of bicycle and motorcycle related crashes vs. non-APP communities. While pedestrian -vehicle collisions were more frequent in non-APP communities.

Lane departure crashes were more common in APP sites, while distracted driving was more prevalent in non-APP sites. Figure 26 illustrates the distribution of severe crashes by day of the week, comparing APP (orange bars) and non-APP (blue bars) communities. Notably, Tuesday and Friday show the highest crash frequencies in non-APP areas, recording 14 and 12 crashes, respectively. In contrast, APP communities experience a pronounced spike on Monday, with 15 severe crashes, suggesting potential vulnerabilities tied to early -week travel. While the overall patterns fluctuate slightly across the week, this temporal divergence may reflect differing commuting behaviors, infrastructure conditions, or community -level risk factors between APP and non-APP sites. 43 16 14 12 10 8 6 4 2 1 0 Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday ■ Not Areas of Persistent Poverty ■Areas of Persistent Poverty Figure 26: Severe Crashes by Day of Week and Area Type Severe crash patterns differ between APP and non-APP areas. On weekdays, non-APP communities see the most crashes between 9:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m., likely tied to work and school travel. In APP areas, the peak occurs from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., possibly linked to midday errands or part-time jobs. Weekend trends show even more contrast: crashes in APP areas peak late at night (10:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m.), possibly linked to driver impairment and poor lighting conditions. Contrary, non-APP areas see a peak earlier, from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., likely due to evening social activities.

Complete location prioritization and scoring results for the HIN intersections and segments will be provided in the Appendix of the finalized report. RECOMMENDED SAFETY ACTIONS Safety strategies/policies were separated into systemic and site/facility specific (targeted) groups. Systemic strategies/policies were developed to address safety throughout the entire City using information from the policy review, site visits, and stakeholder input. Site/facility specific (targeted) strategies/policies were created using a multicriteria approach including crash history, equity considerations, stakeholder input, and network connectivity. The following sections summarize the systemic and site/facility specific (targeted) group safety recommendations. iYSTEMIC SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS The following systemic safety strategies/policies recommendations documented in Table 6 were developed to make the streets and roads in the City of Aventura safer and promote safe driving, walking, and cycling. These strategies/policies are applicable citywide and include engineering, enforcement, and educational strategies/policies. Table 6 summarizes the strategy/policy, scale/timeframe, and qualitative cost. The crash tree in Figure 27 provides the justification for developing systemic countermeasures for signalized intersections. Overall, approximately 62% of total crashes within the city occurred at signalized intersections. Furthermore, 40% of fatal/serious injury crashes and 49% of other injury crashes occurred at signalized intersections. . • Table 6: Systemic Safety Strategies A Establish E-scooter/E-bike policies. = Short $ Evaluate implementing bike boxes on local roadways.

Recommended improvements being proposed includes installation of "TURNING VEHICLES STOP FOR PEDESTRIANS" (R10-15a) signs at intersection approaches, installation of backplates with retroreflective borders on signal heads, ensuring bus stop facilities and amenities meet minimum county standards, restriping crosswalk pavement markings, inspecting roadway/intersection drainage, conducting left - turn phase warrant analyses, and improving bike lane visibility and signage. Detailed countermeasures for all study intersections and segments will be provided in the Appendix of the finalized report. 51 PROGRESS TRACKING AND rRANSPAR�NCY The City of Aventura will continue to maintain the Vision Zero web page, https://www.cityofaventura.com/504/Vision-Zero. A copy of the CSAP report will be posted on the website. The website will be updated regularly with the status of projects/actions identified in the CSAP as they advance toward implementation. This ensures the public can follow the progress, understand implementation timelines, and engage with the City's and stakeholders' efforts toward safer streets for all road users. Progress toward Vision Zero goals will be tracked and annually reported as explained below. COMMITMENT TO 'rRANSPP r�ENCY The CSAP is intended to be a living document that evolves in response to the changing safety needs of Aventura's transportation network. As the City continues its progress toward Vision Zero goal, periodic updates may be necessary to incorporate new data, emerging best practices, and new insights from community engagement. As a best practice, the CSAP should be reviewed every five years and implement necessary updates. PLAN ANC. CRASH DATA UPDATES The S4Awebsite will be the primary resource for crash data utilized in the preparation of the City of Aventura's Annual Monitoring Report. At the time of the publication of the CSAP, S4A provides crash data for the State of Florida in compliance with State regulations regarding the publishing of crash data. The City of Aventura and the Steering Committee will utilize S4A to obtain future year crash data for the Annual Monitoring Report. iaWNUAL IvIUIVI 1 UK11MLj JGtJKr—UAKU A Safety Performance Informational Flyer and Safety Outcomes Tracker will be developed each year using regularly updated crash data through S4A. A sample Flyer and Safety Outcomes template are shown in Figure 28 and 29. Crash records are typically accessible via S4A approximately eightweeks after a crash. To maintain consistency and allow timely evaluation, it is recommended that the report be completed each March or April. Key performance metrics outlined in these concise publications will help communicate the progress toward Vision Zero goals. 52 / City of Aventura Comprehensive Safety Action Plan / r'- Annual Progress Report �- - - REPORTING YEAR: 2025 •• Average Number of Fatal Crashes per Year (2020-2024) Signal 4 Analytics 04 04 01.
