Creating safe and engaging places to walk, bicycle, and ride public transit

Transportation plans and policies shape our communities in profound ways. In our work as consultants and advocates, Active Transportation Alliance and Walk Bike Go promote walking, biking, and public transit through policy initiatives, transforming the way that agencies design and build roadway networks.
