Vision Zero Vancouver is proud to endorse Lucy Maloney (OneCity Vancouver) for Vancouver City Council. Even before joining Vision Zero Vancouver as a volunteer, Lucy has been an unwavering advocate for safer streets, sustainable transportation, and policies that make our city safer for everyone to get around. Her deep commitment to Vision Zero—an approach to eliminating traffic deaths and serious injuries—makes her the champion our city needs.
Since its inception, Lucy has helped Vision Zero Vancouver to push for meaningful changes to make our streets safer. She has:
Led advocacy for pedestrian safety – Lucy has been a vocal proponent of lower speed limits, safer crosswalks, and better pedestrian infrastructure to protect our most vulnerable road users.
Fought for protected bike lanes and better cycling infrastructure – She has played a key role in grassroots efforts to expand safe cycling networks, ensuring that people of all ages and abilities can bike safely throughout the city.
Advocated for transit priority measures – Lucy has championed bus lanes and transit improvements, helping to reduce congestion and make public transit a faster, more reliable option for all.
Championed safe routes to school for children– As a member of the Vancouver District Parent Advisory Council (DPAC), Lucy has been a strong voice for safer streets around schools, leading the Active Transport / Safe Routes Working Group. She has worked tirelessly to ensure children can walk, bike, and roll to school safely by advocating for better infrastructure, reduced traffic dangers, and city policies that prioritize student safety.
Lucy’s tireless dedication to Vision Zero principles is exactly what Vancouver needs on city council. With her leadership, we can build a city where no one has to fear for their safety on our streets.
We encourage all Vancouver citizens who care about safer streets, better transit, and a more livable city to vote for Lucy Maloney in the upcoming municipal election.
See the City of Vancouver website for more information on how to vote. Early voting takes place on March 26 and April 1, and election day is Saturday April 5.
There are two positions on council up for election on April 6. While we only make one endorsement, we urge you to keep road safety in mind as you evaluate the candidates and parties. We’ve been keeping track of how council has voted on vision zero initiatives, and recently we’ve had a chance to talk to Sean Orr from COPE and Annette Reilly from the Greens on important road safety issues.
