Your voice is essential to creating a safer and more accessible transportation system.

BCDCOG is currently developing our Regional Safety Action Plan. Our intention is to create a transportation and infrastructure network that works for everyone, regardless of how they move through our community.

We recognize that people with disabilities often face unique mobility barriers, so we've created this a targeted survey, separate from the general survey, to better understand the real-world challenges you experience every day.

Why participate? The feedback you provide will go directly toward identifying priority projects, securing funding for infrastructure improvements, and shaping policy changes to make our streets and transit systems safer and more accessible for all.

Time: This survey will take approximately 10–12 minutes to complete.

Confidentiality: Your responses are completely confidential. Data will be analyzed in aggregate to identify regional trends and specific areas of concern.

Accessibility: This survey is designed to be screen-reader friendly. The screen settings, including font size and contrast, can be adjusted by clicking the person icon in the lower left corner of the screen. If you require an alternative format or assistance completing this survey, please contact Kyle James by email at kylej@bcdcog.com or by phone 843-529-0402.
