What are Complete Streets?

Complete Streets are designed with consideration for users of all ages and physical ability, and they allow for multiple modes of transportation. Pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists and public transportation users are able to safely move along and across a complete street. Complete Streets make it easy to cross the street, walk to shops, or bicycle to work. They allow buses to run on time and make it safe for people to walk to and from all transit stops. 

A commitment to the Complete Streets concept does not mean all modes for all roads. Rather, each street design is unique and responds to the needs of the community and destinations surrounding it. Sidewalks, bike lanes, crosswalks, medians, curb extensions, bus shelters, transit accessibility and landscaping are a few of the hallmarks of Complete Streets. These and other design elements can be implemented in a variety of combinations to develop a truly balanced transportation system. Complete Streets is not about taking space away from automobiles — it is about providing equal access to roads and streets for all users, and creating neighborhoods that are safer and more inclusive.
