Thunderhead Alliance Guide to Complete Streets Campaigns
Our nation’s transportation system is a death trap for the third of our citizens who do not drive. A full 13% of traffic deaths are bicyclists and pedestrians yet most roadways are still being built with only motor vehicles in mind. Pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists, and transit users of all ages and abilities can safely travel along and across complete streets. Complete streets policies require safe accommodation of all users. If you are an advocate or government official working to promote safe access for bicyclists and pedestrians to all roadways, this Guide is for you. Filled with an introduction to complete streets policies, a survey of existing policies, information on policy implementation, and a step-by-step guide to complete streets campaign planning and communication, this Guide will assist you in winning complete streets in your community.
