Streets for All provides a framework for community members to transform local streets into enjoyable community spaces. By using traffic-calming features like roundabouts to slow down traffic, neighbors can work together to create spaces for everyone to walk, ride, play and connect.

Funding

The "Streets for All" Manual is funded by a federal Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant, which also funds the City’s Comprehensive Speed Management Plan and the Historically Disadvantaged Community Quick-Build Program.
 

Funding for the construction of Streets for All projects is not provided by the City. Communities interested in pursuing traffic calming measures may work with local community-based organizations, improvement or business districts, or neighborhood groups to explore potential funding and grant opportunities that could support implementation.

Frequently Asked Questions

When will "Streets for All" be implemented in my neighborhood

The Streets for All Manual provides a framework for traffic calming on local streets. Streets for All projects are intended to be led by community members who are interested in creating slow streets in their neighborhoods. If you are interested in learning more about how Streets for All may benefit your community, you are encouraged to review the network map and the treatments and permitting process outlined in the Manual.

What does the map show?

The map identifies potential locations that meet the Manual's criteria for traffic calming. These are areas where slower speeds and reduced vehicle volumes could most effectively improve walking, biking, rolling, and community use. This doesn’t preclude the exploration of other traffic- calming projects on other local roadways.

If my street is included in the Streets for All Network Map, will a traffic calming measures automatically be installed?

No. The Manual and corresponding network map were developed as tools for the community to work collaboratively with community-based organizations and local businesses to implement slow street treatments where desirable. Streets on the network map have been identified through research and analysis as potentially benefiting from the treatments included in the Manual.
