In San Jose this week, the city continues to address bike and pedestrian safety amid recent tragic incidents. Two fatal pedestrian collisions occurred: an 18-month-old child was killed in a parking area of a condo complex, and another pedestrian died in a morning crash near the Coyote Creek overcrossing on Mabury Road. These incidents highlight ongoing safety challenges as roadway deaths in the city are nearly doubling compared to 2025. Community engagement around active transportation was also notable with the recent Viva CalleSJ event, where a major stretch of Alum Rock Avenue was closed to cars, allowing residents to bike and walk freely. Recent city council discussions included priorities related to the Valley Transportation Authority’s local investment plan, which may influence future bike and pedestrian infrastructure projects in San Jose. What to watch: Continued city council and VTA planning efforts on bike and pedestrian infrastructure improvements following the recent safety incidents.
