The city was awarded a RAISE 2021 planning grant. This project aligns with USDOT’s goals related to safety, quality of life and environmental sustainability.
The Orlando area ranks as one of the deadliest regions for bicyclists and pedestrians, and this project is aimed at the “High Injury Network” of corridors identified by the Vision Zero Orlando Action Plan. By increasing investment in safer crossings, new bikeways and better sidewalk connectivity, the project will increase accessibility and enhance quality of life. Supporting increased access to transit and non-motorized travel contributes to long-term environmental sustainability.
