Urban sprawl reduces social interactions, stifles economic activity, and diminishes accessibility for residents. Complete Streets programs address these problems by creating built environments that support a diverse set of transportation options and bring communities together. The City of El Paso's Complete Streets Policy ensures all people can travel safely and effectively by integrating transportation improvements with land use impacts, promoting multimodal transit, and adapting infrastructure to urban flooding and heating effects.
