Bill 118 s 3670, also known as the Complete Streets Act, is a proposed piece of legislation that would require all states to establish complete streets programs. These programs would aim to make streets safer and more accessible for all users, including pedestrians, cyclists, and public transportation users.
The bill outlines specific requirements for these complete streets programs, including the consideration of all users in the planning, design, and construction of streets, as well as the incorporation of safety features such as crosswalks, bike lanes, and sidewalks. Additionally, the bill calls for the establishment of performance measures to track the effectiveness of these programs in improving safety and accessibility.
The Complete Streets Act also includes provisions for funding to support the implementation of these programs, including grants for states to develop and implement complete streets policies and projects. The bill emphasizes the importance of collaboration between federal, state, and local governments, as well as community stakeholders, in the development and implementation of complete streets programs.
Overall, the Complete Streets Act aims to create safer, more accessible streets for all users by requiring states to establish comprehensive programs that prioritize the needs of pedestrians, cyclists, and public transportation users.
