Lexington city officials are moving forward with what’s termed a “Complete Streets Program.” Lexington Mayor Linda Gorton is proposing the City hire a manager for the program. It’s characterized as designing with motorists, pedestrians, cyclists, the disabled, and bus riders in mind. Environmental Quality and Public Works Commissioner Nancy Albright said it covers both government and private developer projects.
“Complete Streets will obviously try to improve on the streets that they’re working on and where projects exist and they will be looking for best practices around the country and ways those could be implemented in Lexington,” said Albright.
