One region is creating a unified approach to Complete Streets thanks to our technical assistance—with a twist - Smart Growth America
Complete Streets features on Main Street in South Bend, IN. Photo by Smart Streets SB via Twitter. A bike lane that only lasts one block is not particularly useful. That's why a Complete Streets approach is about more than remaking one given street. It’s about creating a connected network, where people can easily travel anywhere they need to go by a variety of travel modes. A similar philosophy is the basis of a new project we are doing with Indiana communities along the border of Michigan, in a region known as "Michiana." Together with the Michiana Area Council of Governments (MACOG), we are helping to bring together communities interested in Complete Streets to make the entire region safer and more convenient for everyone, no matter their age, ability, income, race, or how they choose to travel.
