Transportation
Active Transportation Committee was formed at the November 2021 LOCAC meeting. Deborah Howe is heading it with help from members of the public. Active transportation is using any self-propelled human powered mode of transportation. The purpose of this committee is to discuss issues for active transportation, to identify projects, and to get feedback for priorities, safety and funding options. This committee is now joined with the Traffic & Circulation Committee, which no longer exists independently.
