Complete Streets Demonstration Project 2021

Complete Streets Leadership Academy

In 2019, The City of Arlington was chosen to participate in the Washington Complete Streets Leadership Academy, along with Wenatchee and Airway Heights, WA.  Arlington's team consists of members from the City's Community Development, Public Works, Maintenance and Operations, and Community Outreach Departments, plus a City Councilmember, the Art Council president, and a Youth Councilmember. 

Smart Growth America offers the Complete Streets Leadership Academy as a technical assistance program designed to help jurisdictions identify and overcome barriers to implement Complete Streets, which make it safe and convenient for people of all ages, races, and abilities to walk, run, bike, or roll to reach homes, jobs, shops, and schools. Smart Growth America offers the technical assistance opportunity in partnership with the Washington State Department of Health and the Washington State Department of Transportation thanks to a cooperative agreement with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and support from the Transportation Improvement Board.
