Complete Streets
|
A simple but very powerful concept:
All streets should be designed, built, operated, and maintained taking in consideration the needs of all users: pedestrians, cyclists, transit users, car drivers. Safe access must be ensured for all users, regardless of age or physical ability. US Department of Transportation Recommended Policy:
"Bicycling and Walking facilities will be incorporated into all transportation projects (new construction and reconstruction) in all urbanized areas unless exceptional circumstances exist" (Bicycle and Pedestrian Design Guidance).
