I want our city budget and policies to prioritize the safety and mobility of our most vulnerable travelers. Active Transportation Alliance’s work advances this goal through their campaigns to improve public transit, win dedicated stated state funding for alternative modes, and advocate for safer crosswalks and bike lanes.
