Modal Shift: Connected Communities and Complete Streets

Modal Shift: Connected Communities and Complete Streets

Improve bike and pedestrian connectivity so that residents can safely access the places they need to go.

• Continue to invest in complete streets to improve connectivity between neighborhoods.
• Continue to improve sidewalk connectivity and maintenance in neighborhoods where connectivity/walkability is lacking.
• Complete the CROWN bike network and connect it to neighborhoods.
• Expand access to public bike access traditional and electric bikes to more neighborhoods and increase participation in public bike access programs.
• Continue to leverage Vision Zero to install bike lanes and traffic calming measures to reduce speeds and improve safety.

Modify land use regulations to support development along transit corridors.

• Promote “15 Minute Neighborhoods” with mixed residential (including multi-family) and commercial zoning to increase transit connectivity as well as density and affordability.​
• Embrace zoning reform that increases density near transit, reduces or eliminates parking requirements across the region, and minimizes the use of surface parking lots.
