Complete Streets Information

SRTC has been working for probably the past six months with the Education Coalition for Safe and Complete Streets to educate local elected, civic, and business leaders about complete streets and the possibility of passing a complete streets policy in the City of Spokane.

One of our goals was to produce a one page information sheet explaining the concept of complete streets and the benefits. After we completed one info sheet aimed at the general public, we decided we had another demographic we needed to address; businesses. Complete streets can be a big boost to businesses, so it was decided to do a separate info sheet aimed at business owners and managers.

Here's a link to the sheet aimed at everyone.

And here is information that could help business folk determine if they would like to support complete streets. Both sheets contain information on how you can show your support for complete streets and get involved. Please feel free to download them and pass them on to anyone else you think may be interested.
