Why “Complete Streets”?
Petaluma’s streets, sidewalks, and paths are common threads binding our community together. While safety remains our foundational goal, a citywide network of “complete streets” offers far more than stress-free transportation. As the graphic below suggests, Complete Streets serve everyone: walkers, rollers, drivers and transit riders. They revitalize our local economy, enhance our natural environment, and foster the long-term health of everyone in town.
Modern street designs make room for everyone, preventing collisions.
Walking and rolling along tree-lined streets is great exercise.
A car can be a family budget buster, out of reach for many.
Bikes require less space for parking, getting more shoppers closer to stores.
Cars create ⅔ of Petaluma's greenhouse gas emissions. Enabling car alternatives is our best way to reduce pollution.
Street trees calm traffic while capturing carbon and cooling hot summer days.
A complete street invites people out for walks and impromptu conversations with neighbors.
Bike trains to school bring parents and kids together.
