Sacramento City Council May Declare Emergency Over Traffic Safety - Streetsblog California
Briefly

The proposal to declare an emergency is seen as necessary, but advocates criticize it as ineffective, emphasizing the need for roadway design improvements over policing increases.
Kiara Reed stated, "We need this, and we have advocated for it. But the current proposed declaration won't get us what we need... Roadway design is an effective way to reduce traffic fatalities, and this should be a priority."
Isaac Gonzalez highlighted the urgency of the situation, saying, "This could be a pivotal moment in the escalating crisis... we’ve all along advocated for quick-build to transform our built environment quickly, physically reshaping our streets to passively encourage safety."
