Review
The most basic feature of urban mobility is a network of walkways that is complete, continuous, and safe. Walkways aren’t just for transportation—they are also public spaces where people can relax, socialize, and even buy and sell goods. These walkways can take many forms, but they must provide protection from motor vehicles and be accessible to all people, including babies, toddlers, their caregivers, and people with disabilities.
