Streets For People
We stand as a community facing significant choices about our city’s streets and neighborhoods that will affect our future economically, environmentally, socially, and aesthetically. After decades of ever increasing automobile use, we now squarely confront the consequences of our past choices, and the promise of an entirely different approach.
Do you believe in a better, more sustainable future for transportation in Seattle? Join us!
The Goal of Streets for People is to build a broad based public campaign to transition our streets away from an auto-centric approach to one that treats streets as public places, and prioritizes them for walking, biking and transit.
