Milwaukee, like most American cities, had prioritized its transportation infrastructure over the past several decades around cars. This contributed to climate change, pollution, and difficulty for people to access many destinations by other means. Investment in multiple means of transportation creates economic and health benefits while increasing the ease of mobility for everyone.
Providing people with safe and enjoyable transportation options, such as walking, biking, and transit, reduces pollution and contributes to greater mobility for residents and workers in the city.
