Complete Streets
Complete Streets are streets designed for all users, all modes of transportation, and all ability levels. They balance the needs of drivers, pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders, emergency responders, and goods movement based on the local context.
Complete Streets Technical Assistance Program
This program, funded by the NJTPA, supports municipalities by providing them with the knowledge, skills and resources to develop Complete Streets-related solutions. Technical assistance is provided through a partnership with Sustainable Jersey (SJ) and the Voorhees Transportation Center at Rutgers University (VTC). Selected participants receive free direct technical assistance to complete a specific task related to advancing a Complete Streets initiative in their community. No direct funding to municipalities is provided. Further information is at Complete Streets Technical Assistance – Sustainable Jersey.
In 2022-2023, seven municipalities were selected to receive technical assistance for projects ranging from walkability workshops to Complete Streets policies. Download the final reports below:
