Vision Statement
Streets and highways are designed to encourage bicycling and walking, with safe and convenient paths to most destinations. The old-fashioned ‘walk around the neighborhood’ is possible, enhancing the cohesiveness of communities.

An improved roadway system provides safe and efficient travel with enhanced traffic management techniques and innovative roadway designs. Roadways include extensive landscaping and are integrated into the environment and the community.

The transit system provides efficient, frequent and direct services. People can walk or ride to transit stops, which are comfortable and convenient places to wait. More transportation choices and compact, sustainable communities have led to significant reductions in air pollution.

Neighborhood streets are designed for people as well as cars.

Beauty, safety, and civic pride are elements of road design.
