Alexandria's Complete Streets Policy

In early 2011, The City of Alexandria adopted a Complete Streets Policy to ensure our transportation network and infrastructure is designed to ensure safe, convenient travel for all users. We recognize that the users of our transportation system include pedestrians, bicyclists, riders and drivers  of public transportation, in addition to motor vehicle drivers.

Streets must be comprehensively designed to provide safe transport for all users, including the needs of children, older adults, and people with disabilities, represent a danger to the public. Please click here to view the full text of Alexandria’s Complete Streets Policy.
