Making communities safer
Communities can test the effectiveness of short-term, low-cost safety changes, the kind of changes that let cities try new ideas. Not only are they low-cost, flexible, quick-build projects, but they also help gather feedback and see how people react before making permanent changes. Being able to test a solution ensures that the solution works best for the people in that neighborhood. These projects give the city a place to practice skills in safer street design, creative placemaking, and community engagement.
