The Benefits of Moving to a Complete Streets Design Model

A Complete Streets design model ensures that transportation planners and engineers consistently plan, design, operate, and maintain the entire roadway and roadway networks with all users in mind — including bicyclists, public transportation vehicles and riders, and pedestrians of all ages and abilities.

Complete Streets can incorporate a wide range of elements, such as sidewalks, bicycle lanes, bus lanes, crossing opportunities, median islands, roundabouts, accessible pedestrian signals, and more. This approach can reduce motor vehicle-related crashes, lower pedestrian risk, and improve cyclist safety.
