Street Safety Concerns

Use this map to tell us about locations where don't your feel safe as you travel around the City of Lancaster. What are the problematic streets, intersections, or sidewalks - and what are the issues? Don't forget to add an address! We'll use this information to help prioritize improvement projects moving forward. Learn more about Lancaster's Vision Zero efforts to improve traffic safety at https://visionzerolancaster.com/.

This is a City of Lancaster project, so we're only able to look at projects within our boundaries.

Please note - there may be a better place for your comment:

  1. Fix It! Lancaster. Minor street maintenance issues, such as worn paint at crosswalks, missing bollards, potholes, or street light outages should be reported on Fix It! at https://fixit.cityoflancasterpa.gov/
  2. Traffic Commission (TC). The addition of stop signs, yield signs, bus stops, loading zones, and no parking zones must go through Traffic Commission, which meets every other month on the second Tuesday. You must request to be on the agenda in advance of the agenda deadline. More information on TC is available at https://www.cityoflancasterpa.gov/boards-commissions-and-authorities/traffic-commission/
