Green Streets: Less Emissions, Better Public Transport
This act aims to reduce vehicle emissions by promoting public transportation, bike lanes, and sidewalks. It introduces new road planning rules, requiring cities and states to consider environmental impact and public transit accessibility. Citizens can expect better non-car travel options and cleaner air.
Key points
New road planning rules: cities and states must consider reducing emissions and improving road resilience to climate change.
