Trenton Our Streets Bike Plan Community Engagement: 2023 NJ Complete Streets Excellence Award Winner

Описание: Trenton worked with the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) to produce meaningful public outreach for the “Our Streets” Trenton Bike Plan. The plan proposes adding bicycle facilities and making design changes on certain streets to increase safety for all road users – including bicyclists, skaters, scooters, pedestrians, and drivers. Additionally, the project engaged the East Trenton Collaborative and City of Trenton staff in the public works department to host three “Our Streets” public engagement events. At these events, pop-up protected bike lanes or cycle tracks were installed so people could see what the recommendations would look like on the ground.

The 2023 New Jersey Complete Streets Excellence and Champion Awards recognize individuals, organizations, or communities, who have worked to expand Complete Streets policies and implementation throughout the state. These awards were presented at the November 1, 2023, New Jersey Complete Streets Summit sponsored by the NJ Department of Transportation.
