NATIONAL COMPLETE STREETS COALITION
For decades, California and most of the nation have been building streets that are incomplete because they fail to provide safe access for everyone who uses them, whether they are in cars, on foot or bicycle, in wheelchairs, or using public transportation.

It is encouraging to finally see clear signs of federal action to support a comprehensive US infrastructure investment plan.
