The City of Fayetteville is launching a new Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) initiative to create a more resilient, inclusive, and connected community where every person can travel safely.
The effort, shaped by community voices, focuses on reducing traffic fatalities and serious injuries across the city.
The SS4A program uses data‑driven analysis and public feedback to identify safety concerns and understand crash patterns. Supported by planning funds from the U.S. Department of Transportation, the initiative focuses on using evidence to guide where safety investments can make the biggest difference.
Crash data show that safety issues in Fayetteville are highly concentrated: only 8% of road miles are responsible for about 76% of fatal and serious injury crashes across all modes.
The SS4A effort will help prioritize improvements where they can save the most lives.
“Every resident deserves to get where they’re going safely,” said Transportation Planner Chandler Hagen in a press release. “By listening to residents and partnering with the community, we can make smarter investments that lead to real, lasting change.”
To kick off the initiative, the City invites community members to take an online public survey to share their experiences and suggest changes that could make streets safer in their neighborhood. Feedback will help guide the development of a comprehensive safety action plan that identifies strategies to reduce crashes and improve road conditions for all users.
Visit FayettevilleNC.gov/CSAP to complete the survey by Sunday, June 7.
Additionally, as part of the community feedback process, the City will have four informational and feedback sessions:

Big T’s has been a local favorite of Hope Mills since 2000 when Timmy (Big T) and Donna Gray first opened right on Hope Mills Lake. It is a seasonal restaurant, so many of Big T’s loyal customers were happy to hear they would now be open year-round, seven days a week.
