[May 7] the City of Seattle and SDOT released a Draft Pedestrian Master Plan. The plan, which has been in the works for 20 months, is designed to guide city investments in pedestrian facilities in a purposeful and efficient manner. The plan has four major goals.
Safety - Reduce the number and severity of crashes involving pedestrians
Equity - Make Seattle a more walkable city for all through equity in public engagement, service delivery, accessibility, and capital investments
Vibrancy - Develop a pedestrian environment that sustains healthy communities and supports a vibrant economy
Health - Raise awareness of the important role of walking in promoting health and preventing disease
