What are Complete Streets?
Complete Streets are safe, comfortable, and convenient for travel for everyone, regardless of age or ability – motorists, pedestrians, bicyclists, and public transportation riders.

Improved Safety• Bicyclists and pedestrians
are disproportionately represented in crash rates
• Designing streets for all users reduces crashes– In Santa Monica, a street
reconfiguration reduced crashes by 65%1

Increased Transit Ridership• Sidewalks and crossings
encourage transit use– Walkable neighborhoods of King
County, WA have higher public transportation shares2
• Improving efficiency and reliability makes transit more appealing– A priority signal system in Los
Angeles decreased travel time by 25% and increased ridership by more than 30%3

Slides courtesy of Alameda CTC and MTC
Increased Walking and Bicycling
• Pedestrian facilities encourage walking– Residents are 65% more likely to
walk in a neighborhood with sidewalks4
• Bicycle facilities encourage biking– Cities with more bike lanes per
square mile have higher levels of bicycle commuting5
– San Francisco’s improvements on Valencia Street resulted in 1.4 times more cyclists and 36% fewer pedestrian collisions1

Increased Mobility for People with Disabilities and Older Adults • Older pedestrians are more at risk
– In 2008, older pedestrians represented 18% of the fatalities but were only 13% of the population nationwide6
• Seniors are more isolated– Non-driving seniors make 65% fewer trips
to visit family, friends or go to church7
• Pedestrians with disabilities require additional design consideration– Blind pedestrians wait three times longer
to cross the street than sighted pedestrians8

Reduced Air Pollution from Transportation• Transportation is a major
source of air pollution– 75% of air pollution emissions in
the Bay Area are from mobile sources (particularly cars & light duty trucks)9
• Many trips could be walkable or bikeable– 40% of all trips are < 2 miles
