Complete Streets

Book excerpt: "Complete streets serve everyone - pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders, and drivers - and they take into account the needs of people with disabilities, older people, and children. The complete streets movement seeks to change the way transportation agencies and communities approach every street project and ensure safety, convenience, and accessibility for all. At the heart of the complete streets movement are important political, policy, and procedural changes. This best policy and implementation practices manual explores what communities across the country have learned when implementing their complete streets vision."--Introduction.
