Access by proximity

The best solution to transportation problems is to reduce the need for transportation in the first place. You do this by designing neighborhoods where people live close jobs, shopping, and other daily destinations — neighborhoods that are designed with streets and public spaces that encourage walking, biking, and transit use.

This section will cover the projects that are developing or redeveloping compact, walkable neighborhoods in Northeast Ohio.
