The City of Bakersfield was recently ranked as the second-safest for pedestrians in the United States by a Forbes Advisor study. The City, our Public Works Department and the Bakersfield Police Department continue to improve the safety of our streets, sidewalks, bike paths and trails through initiatives like our Neighborhood Traffic Calming Program, Safe Routes to Schools, and our Active Transportation Plan. The City's continued efforts toward pedestrian safety is thanks in part to efforts of the Multi-Modal Transportation Committee and Complete Streets policy improvements. #PedestrianSafetyMonth
