New York City Sustainable Streets 2009 Progress Report (USA)

In the Spring of 2008, NYCDOT released Sustainable Streets, its new strategic plan. The plan laid out, for the first time ever, a clear and detailed transportation policy for New York City; one that promised a new direction.

This annual update of the plan reports on that progress, and serves as a focal point for meeting targets and sustaining momentum across all of their Agency’s programs.

It also sets forth new goals that have emerged during the past year, ranging from development of an internal DOT car-sharing system to further reduce DOT’s fleet, parking needs and miles driven, to issuing a request for proposals to establish a large scale public bicycle system in New York, similar to those in Paris and other cities.
