Want Stay Healthy Streets in your neighborhood? Act Now!

Have you heard the news? Your advocacy is working!

Thanks to your emails, photos and stories, Mayor Durkan announced that many
of Seattle's Stay Healthy Streets will be made permanent

rolling, and biking in their neighborhoods after the pandemic ends. The
Seattle Dept. of Transportation is also changing traffic signal timing to
prioritize people in dense neighborhoods citywide. Let's keep it up!

We're encouraging the City to keep extending the Stay Healthy Streets
program as a low-cost, straightforward way for neighbors to feel safe on
their neighborhood streets, with communities being able to weigh in on what
they want the permanent installation to look like and how it can reflect
neighborhood priorities and culture. We also think that this program needs
to extend into some of Seattle's densest neighborhoods, where neighbors have
even less open community space to share and recreate safely.

Healthy Streets and to ask for continued expansion to more neighborhoods

8 Solutions for Safe Streets for Social Distancing

Governor Inslee's stay-at-home order currently allows walking and biking for
exercise and essential transportation as long as you stay six feet away from
everyone else. Getting fresh air and activity are important not only for our
physical and mental health, but walking and biking to essential jobs and
services can also help save money when finances are feeling tight
(transportation is a major household cost in Seattle, second only to
housing).

With warmer weather ahead, and the possibility of even more-crowded parks
and sidewalks, Seattle Neighborhood Greenways has been looking at ways to
expand our safe, affordable, and sustainable transportation and recreation
options. With the input and collaboration of community members across the
city, we've come up with eight solutions for healthy streets during the
COVID-19 crisis.

times. 

At first glance they don't look like much, because all it takes to make one
is a few cones and signs to restrict vehicles to local access only and open
up the street for people.

But linger for any period of time and you'll see an elder walking, a couple
running, a family walking their dogs, or kids biking in the street.

Healthy Streets

, and we're so excited! This initiative opens up valuable public space, our
streets, for people to move around while maintaining a safe physical
distance from each other.

If widely implemented, these streets will help to ease pressure on some of
our overcrowded city parks, sidewalks, and trails. Stay Healthy Streets will
become increasingly important as the summer heats up, and Seattleites are
eager to get outside while being able to keep a safe distance from each
other.

That's why we're proposing the city implement our crowdsourced, 130 mile,
network of Stay Healthy Streets.

In recognition of the current staffing and budget crunch, this proposal does
not require any new major infrastructure - only cones and signs. The map
relies heavily on existing neighborhood greenways and quiet neighborhood
streets where possible, but incorporates pathways on some major streets
where needed. For more details, see our FAQ

This collaboratively-created plan is based on suggestions from a survey
asking for community input, which was shared in pieces by KUOW, the Seattle
Times, the Stranger, the Seattle Bike Blog, and other media outlets and
received 250 suggestions. We also utilized our network of local groups and
relationships with other organizations to solicit recommendations and vet
maps of each district. In District 2, leadership from community and
neighborhood-based groups such as the African American Leadership forum,
Bethany Church, and EL Comite offered support and insight on routes. Through
these conversations and more, we emerged with a map that is at once
pragmatic, community-supported, and inspiring.

2. Emergency Sidewalk Extensions

97% of Seattle's sidewalks are too narrow for people to safely pass each
other

are in effect. Where possible, the city should temporarily expand sidewalks
by using cones or other barricades. We've already heard major concerns from
the Belltown Community Council for instance, and no neighborhood will be
immune to this issue.

3. Emergency Bike Routes

For the immediate foreseeable future, people are going to want to have
physical distance between them as they start to get back to commuting and
other travel around the city. Cities around the world have begun to
implement temporary bikeways to reduce crowding on transit during this time
of social distancing. This could be accomplished through temporary
installation of cones and construction barriers, and/or by speeding up
existing projects such as East Marginal Way and Eastlake Ave). Creating a
network of safe places to bike will give people options to get to where they
need to go.

4. Next Level Play Streets and Streeteries

Expanding our city's Play Streets and Streeteries programs and making the
permitting process easier and more streamlined will allow residents and
businesses to use street space more easily once public health restrictions
on activities are eased. Local businesses can create additional space for
physical distance between patrons, and people in both low and high density
neighborhoods can create their own community spaces.

5. Automatic Traffic Signals for People

All people deserve traffic signals that allow them to walk and roll across
the street safely and with dignity. We encourage the Seattle Dept. of
Transportation (SDOT) to reconfigure traffic signals to automatically give
people the walk signal without them having to touch a button (other than for
vibration and sound signals for blind or deaf-blind pedestrians). The City
should also develop a policy that limits how low people have to wait for a
walk light and gives people enough time to cross the street.

6. Pursue Vision Zero

The significant decrease in vehicle traffic during this time has also meant
a significant increase in speeding. It's critical that we keep people safe
as they travel to where they need to go. That's why we must follow through
with the Mayor's Vision Zero commitments to implement safer speed limits
citywide and build the Rainier Ave Safety Corridor Project.

8. A Green And Just Rebound

What comes next? What comes after the worst pandemic and possibly the worst
economic crisis in modern times? With Seattle as an early pandemic
epicenter, can we lead the way for a different future- by rebounding as a
greener, more equitable, and thriving city? It won't be easy, but we should
start by implementing a Green New Deal at every level of government to
transform our streets and our economy. Just in Seattle, there are billions
of dollars worth of needed walking, biking, and transit projects that would
create more good-paying green jobs than highway megaprojects.

Mayor and city staff are already implementing the first steps of many of
these initiatives, and we are grateful for their hard work. Now is the time
to join together, roll up our sleeves, and problem-solve to bring these
critical ideas to fruition as soon as possible so that we  emerge from this
crisis a more safe, affordable, and sustainable city. 

Thank you for your continued advocacy!
