Advocacy

The banner photo shows a number of pamphlets lying together on a surface. The pamphlets include LivableStreets Impact Reports from 2015-2017 and a pamphlet about Bus Rapid Transit in Boston.

The LivableStreets Advocacy Committee is dedicated not only to advocating for better street design, but to sharing the knowledge and tools that have been accumulated and refined over the years by our group. We hope that these resources are helpful and inspire you to get more involved in this work!
