PEOPLE-FIRST TRANSPORTATION
Mission
Our Streets works to lead the nation in putting people first by transforming transportation and infrastructure in the Twin Cities, the metro region and the state of Minnesota. We do this by making our streets places where people can easily and comfortably walk, bike, roll, and use public transit.
FUTURE-FOCUSED
Vision
We envision streets and neighborhoods that are vibrant places for people to live, work, and play. We envision communities with people-first transportation infrastructure that is not centered around cars. We envision cities with streets designed to prioritize public health and climate, racial, and economic justice for all our neighbors.
COMMUNITY-CENTERED
Approach
We create positive visions for a people-centric future that repairs past and present harms caused by unjust transportation and decision-making. We elevate and center community voices and desires, focusing on those who have been most harmed by and left out of transportation decisions.
We use grassroots organizing to build shared power and advocate for policies, street designs, and concrete outcomes that improve lives in meaningful ways.
Holding ourselves and decision-makers accountable to the community through transparent, public action.
