Laura Keenan testifies in support of complete Streets

Founder of FSS San Diego chapter, Laura Keenan, testified in support of California SB 960 and shared her husband Matt’s story. In 2023, an estimated 4,000 people died on California’s roadways. More than 30% of these traffic deaths happened on state-owned roads. It doesn’t have to be this way.

Senate Bill 960, authored by Senator Scott Wiener, calls on the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) to put this duty into consistent practice through focused investments in safety improvements and transit priority improvements on state highways that actually function as local roads, but are actually owned by Caltrans, which means that local governments and local transit agencies do not have control over them.

Check out Laura’s powerful testimony and take action to support SB960.
