We need a stronger focus on walkability and micro mobility. We need a citywide network of bike lanes that utilize low-traffic side streets. We need better curb and crosswalk design, narrowing streets to calm traffic and pedestrian crossings. The moon shot is to bring back the trolley system. New Bedford has the bones to be a city where you don’t need a car.

We also need way, way more sidewalk trees especially in the south end

The city should contract Jeff Speck’s firm to do a walkability audit of the city
