The Albuquerque City Council has published Council Bill No. O-25-98, sponsored by Tammy Fiebelkorn. The ordinance proposes changes to the city’s Traffic Code and Sidewalk Ordinance aimed at increasing protections for bicyclists, pedestrians, and other vulnerable road users.
Additionally, the bill includes amendments to the Automated Speed Enforcement Ordinance. These changes would direct revenue generated from automated speed enforcement to Vision Zero traffic safety initiatives.
“AMENDING THE TRAFFIC CODE AND THE SIDEWALK ORDINANCE TO IMPROVE PROTECTIONS FOR BICYCLISTS, PEDESTRIANS, AND OTHER VULNERABLE USERS; AND AMENDING THE AUTOMATED SPEED ENFORCEMENT ORDINANCE TO DIRECT REVENUE TO VISION ZERO TRAFFIC SAFETY INITIATIVES,” the ordinance states.
