Basics

  • A Design Principle where transportation networks are designed to enable safe, convenient and comfortable travel and access for users of all ages and abilities regardless of their mode of transportation
  • Complete Streets allow for safe travel by those walking, cycling, driving automobiles, or riding public transportation
  • Improves accesability
  • An example would have:
  • Sidewalks
  • Bike Lanes
  • Standard Roads
  • Protected Intersections
  • Perhaps enhanced road managment (high occupancy lanes, bus lanes, etc)
