<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:black;background:white">The Pedestrian Action Plan lays out strategies to create safe, accessible, connected, and equitable transportation options for everyone in Delaware. Phase 1 of the plan, published
in October 2022, reviewed DelDOT’s pedestrian-related planning documents, policies, programs, and initiatives, and analyzed pedestrian crash data to identify areas for improvement. Building on these findings, Phase 2 proposes targeted updates to programs
and policies to achieve these goals. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
