STEP UP Campaign

Overview

Safe Transportation for Every Pedestrian (STEP) is a recognized program, having produced valuable resources and providing technical assistance on proven countermeasures for pedestrian safety. However, as pedestrian fatalities continue to rise, FHWA encourages agencies to STEP UP and increase implementation of proven safety countermeasures at crossing locations.

The STEP UP Campaign focuses on several key safety issues for pedestrians, including crossing at night, midblock crossings, and older pedestrians. The following STEP UP materials are available for download and use in customized news articles, social media posts, and print items to focus on these key safety issues.
