Places for People > Creating Safer Streets

Making Biking and Walking Better for the Future

BikeWalkKC works with residents, community leaders, and neighborhood organizations to empower them in creating safer places for people to live, play, and move through our city. YOU can make your community better! Here are some tools that can help:

• CompleteKC DIY Guide: This interactive guide will provide tools and options for improving the built environment in your neighborhood. From organizing a "Better Block Party" to calming the traffic on your street, this guide can show you the way.
• See what's happening in your part of of town. Our Local pages include information about current projects and initiatives, as well as ways to connect with your city's staff and elected officials.
• Home Street Home: we've created a new hands-on, child-friendly "traveling exhibit" that encourages exploration, experimentation, and play. Bring it to your neighborhood!
• Sign up for our newsletter. Sign up to receive Advocacy Alerts so you can impact laws, ordinances, and policies in your community.
• See what we're working on. Our Advocacy page includes our current campaigns and initiatives affecting the region and beyond.
