More than 80 communities passed Complete Streets policies in 2013, and on February 18, Smart Growth America’s
National Complete Streets Coalition will unveil which ones were the best.
Each year, the Coalition analyzes Complete Streets policies enacted
in the past year. These laws, resolutions, executive orders, policies
and planning and design documents encourage and provide safe access to
destinations for everyone, regardless of age, ability, income, ethnicity
or how they travel.
Join Smart Growth America for an online event to celebrate this year’s
best policies and to hear how communities everywhere can create streets
that are safer and more convenient for everyone who uses them.

Complete Streets policies—including laws, resolutions, executive
orders, policies and planning and design documents—encourage and provide
safe access to destinations for everyone, regardless of age, ability,
income, ethnicity or how they travel. The Coalition evaluates policies
based on 10 policy elements, including the policy’s vision, the project
types included and next steps for implementation, among others.
The 2012 rankings recognized Indianapolis, IN, as the top scoring policy in the nation that year.
