3.1 Introduction

Design Guide Introduction

This guidance institutionalizes the City’s Transportation Action Plan, Complete Streets Policy, Vision Zero commitment, greenhouse gas emission reduction goal, commitment to racial justice, and stormwater management requirements through the design of the right of way. Street design will reflect these policies and translate them into opportunities for increased health and safety outcomes for everyone and improved walking, biking, transit, and greening.

See the introduction chapter for additional grounding for this chapter.
