Best Practices Manual on Complete Streets

This research project will clarify and disseminate a number of the most effective tools and techniques for implementing complete streets planning processes and designing techniques. It will fill a special place in the transportation planning technical literature, as a guide to process, procedure, implementation and balance. It will better define the steps involved in complete streets planning, and will help resolve some issues related to balancing the sometimes conflicting needs of various transportation modes. The Project team will research, write, and publish a Best Practices Manual on Complete Streets by undertaking the following five steps.
