  • Mandates development of bicycle plans, pedestrian plans, and traffic calming plans that identify safety corridors, use evidence-based strategies to eliminate traffic fatalities, and set 25-year goals for implementation in urbanized areas.

  • Requires implementation to begin within 2 years of plan adoption, with regular progress reviews and consideration of circulation element revisions if 25-year goals will not be met.
