Complete Streets – What is it about?
Complete Streets Policies
The plan includes four policies to guide local implementing agencies, elected officials,
transportation planners, and developers in implementing Complete Streets. The policies
provide general guidance supporting Complete Streets improvements where contextually
appropriate while respecting the various land use patterns of communities within Washtenaw
County.
General Complete Streets Policy
Transportation agencies shall consider the needs of pedestrians, bicyclists, public
transportation vehicles and riders, motorists, freight vehicles, and people of all ages and
abilities during planning, programming, policy development, design, construction,
reconstruction, retrofit, operations, and maintenance activities and during product selection.
Communities, transportation agencies, and partners should recognize all modes as integral
elements of the transportation system and view all transportation improvements as
opportunities to improve safety, access, and mobility for all travelers in the region.
