Streetsblog USA is asking for nominations in its annual celebration of the "Best Urban Street Transformation."
Angie Schmitt explains the competition by asking the following question: "Did your city complete a great project this year that carved out street space for bus riders or cyclists or pedestrians — or better yet, all three?"
As an example of the kind of project that fits the bill, Streetsblog USA already nominated new bus rapid transit line on Central Avenue in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
