The Unfulfilled Promise of “Complete Streets” Many communities across the country have embraced the idea of “complete streets,” and it has become law in many states. But implementation is everything. In many places going “multimodal” means widening streets to allow for fully separated uses – to let cars keep roaring through at speed. Old habits die hard. All too many engineers still focus on level of service (to the automobile) rather than quality of urban life. Especially in city centers, complete streets probably need to be slower rather than wider. But even in New York City, as dense with pedestrians as it is, transportation officials still seem to see “traffic flowing well” as their goal. What’s wrong with this picture? Is there the political will to make change? How can the promise of complete streets be fulfilled and Vision Zero be realized?
