After months of research and evaluation, the National Complete Streets Coalition has named Connecticut’s Complete Streets law, enacted in 2010, as one of the best in the country.
Championed by former Representative Tom Kehoe, the complete streets law is an important component of smart growth policy, making roads safe and usable for transportation alternatives to the car. Safe, usable streets make for more livable cities and towns.
The complete streets report, which includes the coalition’s ten elements of an ideal complete streets policy, is available at http://www.completestreets.org/webdocs/resources/cs-policyanalysis.pdf.
