Enables safe access to public roads for all users by utilizing complete street design principles
This bill requires state, county, and local transportation projects to prioritize safe access for all road users, including drivers, pedestrians, cyclists, and public transit riders, by applying complete street design principles. It mandates that these design features be used during the planning, design, construction, and rehabilitation of funded projects, while also applying them to resurfacing and maintenance if the work is expected to last at least ten years. Additionally, the legislation updates the criteria for denying funding to projects, allowing officials to reject proposals that show a demonstrated lack of community support based on factors like population density and traffic volumes. The changes will take effect approximately 270 days after becoming law and will not apply to projects already approved before that date.
