What’s the Complete Streets Ordinance?  

Adopted in 2010, Salt Lake City’s Complete Streets Ordinance requires the City’s streets to be designed, operated, and maintained for all modes of traffic, including people walking, biking, and for travelers of all ages and abilities. New and reconstructed streets are designed using national guidance and manuals, which take into account considerations such as the speed and volume of traffic. The City also seeks to implement a Complete Streets approach with other types of resurfacing projects when feasible.
