Houston Traffic Safety Coalition

The Houston Traffic Safety Coalition was founded in 2019 by the TxDOT Behavioral Traffic Safety Section in the Houston District. The coalition is comprised of different government agencies, nonprofit organizations, and business entities along with citizens to work together to make Houston District roadways safer for all road users including pedestrians, bicyclists and motorists. The coalition offers a forum to talk about what problems the community at large is facing.

Mission statement

The mission of the Houston Traffic Safety Coalition is to further safe mobility in the Houston District through innovation, education, and partnerships.

Vision statement

Our current focus areas include but are not limited to impaired and distracted driving, pedestrian safety, bike safety, speeding, and occupant protection.
