    TRANSPORT TROY Sustainable Transportation for Troy New York Accessible, Safe, Healthy, Complete Streets April 24, 2014 “Streets comprise more than 80% of public space in cities, but they often fail to provide their surrounding communities with a space where people can safely walk, bicycle, drive, take transit and socialize” NACTO Urban Street Design Guide www.nacto.org ©2014 Transport Troy Preface This document was produced by a volunteer citizen work group appointed by Mayor Lou Rosamilia in 2013 to study the conditions of Troy’s transportation network and the potential for improvement. It is the intent of this report to shape Troy’s Complete Streets policy, heighten awareness of sustainable transportation issues and trends, and identify short and long term projects to improve safety and walkability in Troy, New York. Everyone who contributed to this report comes to it with a great deal of love for the City of Troy. Whether we have lived here and worked here for decades, or are newly associated with Troy, we are drawn to Troy by its history, architecture, natural beauty and spirit. At every turn, we are faced with rising energy costs and reduced budgets. Troy faces important choices regarding how increasingly limited public infrastructure funding can serve the needs of all of its citizens, every day. The recommendations and proposals offered here prepare Troy to meet a new future in a world where communities more often compete for businesses, visitors, and homeowners. Properly planned, alternate transportation networks will encourage investment and set the stage for economic development and recreation planning.
