Vision Zero Commitment

UrbanX targets zero pedestrian deaths — the same goal as Copenhagen, Amsterdam, and Tokyo. Reducing vehicle speed from 50 km/h to 30 km/h lowers pedestrian fatality risk from 85% to 5%. Every redesign generated by UrbanX is validated against IRC:SP:103 and international best practices.
