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.
