Leadership Agenda

Create walkable communities:
Provide areas which are intended exclusively for pedestrians, and serve as convenient, logical and safe connections. These areas should connect to and within common destinations so that pedestrians may go about their daily lives running errands, commuting to work, visiting friends, getting exercise, etc.

Design intersections so that the crossing pedestrian is clearly visible to all drivers, and so pedestrian/vehicle conflict is minimized. Ensure that pedestrians are afforded convenient crossings at signals without long wait times.

Pedestrian scale design:
Future development should include a mix of destinations that encourages walking as a part of everyday life.

Enforce all laws related to pedestrian safety, mobility and priority.

Promote legislative policies that give priority and funding to non-motorized sustainable transportation.

Enhance the walking experience and community environment through streetscape design and public amenities.
