Abstract
Description
This report was developed by students in SPEA-S515: Sustainable Communities at Indiana University in collaboration with the City of Bedford through the 2017–2018 Sustaining Hoosier Communities initiative. The project focused on supporting the City of Bedford’s efforts to implement a Complete Streets policy aimed at improving multimodal transportation infrastructure, pedestrian safety, and community equity. Students conducted site visits, led a town hall meeting, and developed recommendations for three priority corridors: Washington Avenue, I and J Streets, and Mitchell Road. The report includes case studies, prioritization criteria, monitoring strategies, and community outreach plans to help advance Bedford’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan and promote active living.
This project was completed as a collaboration between the students in SPEA-S515: Sustainable Communities and the City of Bedford’s Complete Streets policy as part of the 2017–2018 Indiana University Sustaining Hoosier Communities (IUSHC) initiative. IUSHC is a program within the IU Center for Rural Engagement (CRE). This report represents original student work and recommendations proposed by the students in SPEA-S515: Sustainable Communities for the City of Bedford. The contents of this report represent the views of the students in SPEA-S515: Sustainable Communities and do not reflect those of IUSHC, CRE, Indiana University, or the City of Bedford.
