Citywide Active Transportation Plan

Project Overview

The Plan will prioritize transportation projects that promote active transportation within the City. This includes conducting an inventory of existing infrastructure, developing a prioritized list of implementation projects, identifying non-infrastructure elements for community engagement, creating a realistic approach to project funding, and conducting extensive public outreach. The project will build on similar past efforts, such as the City's 2024 Vision Zero Plan, 2016 Bicycle Transportation Plan(PDF, 8MB), and 2018 Pedestrian Transportation Plan(PDF, 15MB). By leveraging insights and successes from these previous plans, the new ATP will be comprehensive, informed by past experiences, and aligned with the City's long-term goals for active transportation.

The ATP is fundamentally different from safety-focused plans like the Vision Zero Plan and the LRSP. In short, the ATP isn’t just about preventing crashes. It is the go-to document for ensuring Cupertino has the infrastructure, policies, and strategies to make active transportation a central part of everyday life.

While there may be overlap with safety plans, the ATP organizes the key findings and primary goals of these other plans to serve as a guiding master plan document for active transportation project delivery. It unifies the priorities of Vision Zero and Local Roadway Safety Plan while adding the infrastructure and policy frameworks needed to implement capital projects.
