Complete Streets Council

Guiding Principle: Transportation professionals collaborating to plan, design, and operate streets for all users of all abilities in a safe and equitable manner.

About the Complete Streets Council

The Complete Streets Council (CSC) advances multimodal transportation by bringing together professionals who plan, design, operate, and maintain streets that safely and equitably serve all users.

The CSC represents and promotes the needs of pedestrians, bicyclists, transit users, freight operators, drivers, and other travelers in the planning, design, construction, operation and maintenance of complete, multi-modal transportation systems. The council works to position ITE as the go-to resource on multi-modal transportation for its members and as an active partner with other organizations and agencies in this field. As a cross-cutting technical council, the CSC coordinates and showcases ongoing initiatives and evaluates internal and external technical, policy, and institutional opportunities for ITE to become a leader in complete streets.
