[QUOTE="donner, post: 2626597, member: 277"] Nope, i'm on the Pathways Commission in Oxford MS. We don't have any power other than working with the city to identify pedestrian/cyclist/motorist problems and craft solutions. We're working on a Complete Streets project right now that works to ensure projects being developed (roads, neighborhoods, etc) meet with the city's 20 year vision and provide for cycling and pedestrian infrastructures when possible. It's a college town, so lots of people bike and walk to campus, town and other events. It's lots of little things like they built a new elementary school on one side of the highway with no means of crossing under the overpass for people walking, despite having a neighborhood not 100 yards from the highway. Lots of parents want to walk their kid to school (or let them walk) but not if they haven't built any sideways. Stuff like that. [/QUOTE]
