Fayetteville Slow Streets
Slow Streets NWA exemplifies Trailblazers’ focus on health in community and infrastructure. The program works directly with cities and communities to identify areas in need of infrastructure improvements to increase safety, access, and conversations around mobility, whether for transportation or recreation.
Through temporary installations of traffic calming materials, Slow Streets highlights areas lacking complete sidewalks, bike infrastructure, and connectivity to area resources. Beginning as a response to COVID-19, the program has evolved to serve the community beyond the initial challenges posed by the pandemic.
By slowing down people driving cars, neighborhood streets are safer for all users.
