About the Complete Streets Bill (SB 735)
Connecticut's SB 735 is a start toward making sure
transportation isn't just about cars anymore.
 Too often our road
projects make walking and bicycling impractical or unsafe in many places.
SB 735 would ensure that all road users--including transit users, bicyclists,
and pedestrians--are considered in new transportation projects. With gas prices inching back up, cycling's popularity will only continue to rise.
|
The
bill will also establish a statewide bicycle and pedestrian advisory committee
to serve as a permanent advocate for pedestrians and bicyclists.
Hope you can make the rally!
