Code for Canada

Hear how MOVE enabled staff at Toronto Transportation Services to use more and better data to build safer streets.

How do cities decide where to build crosswalks or street lights? Or make policies to ensure road safety for pedestrians, cyclists and drivers? In 2017, Toronto committed to Vision Zero, a bold plan to use a data-driven and targeted approach to reduce traffic fatalities and serious injuries on city streets. But the tools they were using were stuck in the 90s. Meet MOVE. What began as a Code for Canada fellowship in 2018 has led to a generational upgrade of the City of Toronto&#x27;s traffic data systems. MOVE is enabling staff at Toronto Transportation Services to use more — and better — data when deciding how to build safer streets. Join us on Thursday, March 11 at 12:00 p.m. EST to hear from MOVE’s core team, including former fellows and City of Toronto officials, and get a behind-the-scenes look at the work leading up to launch and what’s next for MOVE.
