The Memphis Pedestrian and School Safety Action Plan is the product of a collaborative, data-driven planning process focused on prioritizing and delivering critical pedestrian infrastructure projects near public schools in Memphis. As they are implemented, these projects will serve students walking to and from school as well as residents accessing parks, libraries, community centers, transit stops, and other public resources often located near schools.
The plan describes conditions for walking in Memphis in 2015, explains the methodology used to identify pedestrian needs and prioritize sidewalk and crossing treatment investments, presents the resulting phased project list, and outlines a coordinated strategy for project implementation.
