(A) 2010 Campaign for Active Transportation. Organized by the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy, the Campaign for Active Transportation aims to double the federal funding for trails, walking and biking in the upcoming Federal transportation reauthorization. The campaign is encouraging communities to gather a campaign team and develop an active transportation case statement, considering what the community could achieve with a $50 million federal investment in bicycling and walking.
(B) Complete Streets Act of 2008. The Complete Streets Act was proposed to the U.S. Senate on 3-3-2008, and would ensure that future transportation investments made by State Departments of Transportation and Metropolitan Planning Organizations create appropriate and safe transportation facilities for all roadway users, including motorists, transit vehicles and riders, bicyclists and pedestrians of all ages and abilities.
