§ 64-41. Intent.  


Latest version.
  • The city shall develop a safe, reliable, efficient, integrated, and connected multimodal transportation system that will promote access, mobility, and health for all users and will ensure that the safety and convenience of all users of the transportation system are accommodated, including pedestrians, wheelchair users, bicyclists, public transportation users, motorists, and people of all ages and abilities. Additionally, the city shall incorporate green infrastructure, innovative stormwater management, street trees, and appropriate lighting in transportation projects. All city-owned streets, bridges, traffic signals, and similar transportation facilities will include sidewalks with appropriate pedestrian accommodations, and the city's bicycle master plan and walkability plan shall be implemented during new or reconstruction of transportation facilities within the city limits.

    While this policy applies citywide, the city shall develop plans and set goals to prioritize and ensure successful implementation of complete streets in low and moderate-income neighborhoods, neighborhoods with poor health outcomes, and neighborhoods with diminished access to transportation options.
