Welcome to the Pedestrian Toolbox!

Pedestrian Master Plan > Toolbox

The Pedestrian Toolbox provides information about hundreds of tools that can be used to address common pedestrian issues, with seven specific toolboxes that focus on:

• Designing and engineering safe and accessible roadways and pedestrian facilities
• Educating roadway users, property owners, and decision makers about rules, rights, and responsibilities
• Enforcing laws, proper behaviors, and use of roadway facilities
• Encouraging walking and physical activity throughout the community
• Short- and long-term planning, land use, and zoning for the built environment
• Ensuring equity, health, and environmental sustainability
• Finding funding to support and sustain pedestrian improvements
