6 BACKGROUND [2008] Indiana Healthy Weight Initiative [ ] Indiana s Comprehensive Nutrition and Physical Activity Plan [ ] Indiana Cancer Control Plan
7 WHAT ARE COMPLETE STREETS? Complete streets are safe, comfortable and convenient for all users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists and public transit riders, regardless of age or ability. Complete streets serve the 1/3 of Hoosiers who do not drive.
8 CAPTURING THE POTENTIAL Of all U.S. trips: 50% are under 3 miles 28% are 1 mile or less 72% of trips 1 mile or less are driven These are walkable and bikeable trips! 2008 National Household Travel Survey
9 We know how to build complete streets

13 COMPLETE STREETS APPROACH: High-level policy direction Changing everyday decision-making processes and systems Incremental improvements Long-term results
14 COMPLETE STREETS ARE NOT: One special street project A one-size-fits-all approach or design prescription A mandate for immediate retrofit A silver bullet solution for all transportation issues
15
16 Design for safety Everyone is a pedestrian Be context sensitive Create public spaces Bottom line: all users must be able to safely move along and across a complete street
17 WHY COMPLETE STREETS?
18 ENSURING SMART INVESTMENT Build lasting value Savings on healthcare safety, environmental quality, etc. Avoid costly retrofits The Illinois DOT spent $900,000 to retrofit a bridge after several fatalities and a wrongful death lawsuit
19 ENSURING SMART INVESTMENT Save money with better design In Wisconsin, a road diet and roundabout saved 17% of the original project cost Implement effective measures at little to no extra cost Colorado Springs repaves 7-10% of its roadways annually and expands its bike network at the same time
20 PROMOTING GOOD HEALTH 60% of adults are at risk for diseases associated with physical inactivity The average resident of a walkable neighborhood weighs 6-10 pounds less than one who lives in sprawl States with the highest levels of biking and walking have the lowest levels of chronic disease
21
22 MEETING DEMAND Americans WANT to walk and bike more 66% of Americans want more transportation options 47% of Americans say they would like more bike facilities in their communities Future of Transportation National Survey, 2010 National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 2009
23 MEETING DEMAND Millennials and baby boomers agree: walkability, connectivity, access and choice National Association of REALTORS: the next generation of homebuyers wants transportation options in vibrant communities
24 MEETING DEMAND
25 INCREASING MOBILITY: PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES Access is a civil rights issue 31% of adults with disabilities lack adequate transportation Photo: Dan Burden Universal design benefits everyone
26 INCREASING MOBILITY: OLDER AMERICANS A majority of older Americans support complete streets 1 in 5 Americans will be over 65 by 2025 In 2008, older pedestrians accounted for 18% of fatalities but only 13% of the population
27 INCREASING MOBILITY: KIDS In 1969, 87% of children living within 1 mile of school walked or bicycled. Today, fewer than 12% of children use active modes of transportation (APHA).
28 IMPROVING PUBLIC SAFETY Sidewalks reduce pedestrian crashes 88% Medians reduce crashes 29% ped/bikeimages.org / Margaret Gibbs Road diets reduce crashes 29% Countdown signals reduce crashes 25% ped/bikeimages.org / Dan Burden
29 PROVIDING AFFORDABLE OPTIONS Transportation is the second largest household expense in the U.S. Average cost of owning a car is $9,000 per year These costs are unavoidable in autodependent communities Source: Breakfastonbikes.blogspot.com

31 IMPROVING THE ENVIRONMENT Traffic congestion wastes nearly 3.9 billion gallons of gas per year 1 in 12 Americans live with asthma Nearly 1 pound of CO2 is saved for every mile pedaled Texas Transportation Institute, 2010; U.S. EPA, 2009
32 BUILDING PLACE Encourage community interaction and put more eyes on the street Improve quality of life for all ages and abilities Every 10 minutes spent commuting by car = 10% less time participating in community activities Source: Sightline Institute, Cascadia Scorecard, 2006
33 THE BOTTOM LINE: Complete Streets are feasible in every community. Complete Streets have a multitude of benefits. Complete Streets are necessary for our health and well-being.
