Complete Streets are designed and operated to enable safe access for all users. Instead of fighting for better streets block by block, the National Complete Streets Coalition seeks to fundamentally transform the look, feel and function of the roads and streets in our community, by changing the way most roads are planned, designed, and constructed. Our campaign goal is to help with the adoption and implementation of 5 statewide and 25 regional or local complete streets policies by 2008. http://www.completestreets.org/
