The plan provides a comprehensive framework for making San Diego’s transportation network more multimodal, accessible, and sustainable.
San Diego adopted its first Mobility Master Plan after two years of planning and input from community members, according to a report in SD News. “The public feedback was incorporated into the plan, which now includes clear performance metrics and monitoring, as well as projects that meet the transportation needs of all ages and abilities, and neighborhood-scale traffic calming improvements.”
The plan is “designed to create a balanced, equitable and sustainable mobility system” and help the city achieve its Vision Zero goal of eliminating traffic deaths as well as support the goals in its Climate Action Plan.
The plan offers a comprehensive approach to planning for all types of mobility, with a focus on alternative transportation modes. “With the plan adopted, the City now has a comprehensive source for identifying the best ways to invest in the City’s transportation system, from street improvements to bike lanes, to improve the transportation experience for all San Diego residents and visitors.”
