AN ORDINANCE TO CONSIDER ADOPTING REVISIONS TO THE CITY OF CLAYTON COMPLETE STREETS POLICY

City Manager Gipson reported that Complete Streets are streets designed and operated to enable safe use and support mobility for all users, including people of all ages and abilities, regardless of whether they are travelling as drivers, pedestrians, bicyclists, or public transportation riders. These concepts were the basis of the original Complete Street policy adopted by the City of Clayton in 2012.

Moving forward to 2018, the NCSC updated and revised their complete streets policy framework and evaluation criteria to focus on implementation and equity.

NCSC states that “the 10 revised policy elements are based on decades of collective expertise in transportation planning and design, created in consultation with NCSC’s steering committee members and a group of national stakeholders consisting of engineers, planners, researchers, and advocates.”
