The Complete Streets for Active Living Bill (SB 127) needs one more thing before it becomes law: a signature from Governor Newsom.
Caltrans has asked for a veto, so please email the governor your support for the Complete Streets Bill right now!Caltrans is too often an obstacle when local communities try to create safer streets. The Complete Streets Bill requires them to include safety in their repaving and rebuilding projects. It will save lives.
