Austin has made progress. There were 515 serious injuries on Austin roadways in 2021 – that is the lowest number of serious injuries since 2015 (excluding 2020’s pandemic year). In fact, Austin may be the only large city in Texas to see a reduction from 2019 serious injury numbers, and doing that in the face of continued growth in the region is a positive data point.
