** Vision Zero PSA Screening + Panel Discussion
------------------------------------------------------------

On September 23^rd, we hosted a screening of public service announcements (PSAs) that highlighted five families impacted by roadway crashes in Nashville. The short video testimonials are part of our Vision Zero initiative (https://www.nashville.gov/departments/transportation/plans-and-programs/vision-zero) to strive for zero traffic-related fatalities and serious injuries in the city. After the screening, WPLN’s “This is Nashville” host Khalil Ekulona moderated a panel discussion with Freddie O’Connell, Mayor of Nashville and Davidson County, Diana Alarcon, Director of NDOT, Nate McDowell, Founder of Music City Dope Pedalers, and Meredith Montgomery, Executive Director of Walk Bike Nashville.

The event was covered by several news outlets and kickstarted our efforts to share the PSAs with the public.
