Beverly Hills Complete Streets Plan Ready For Final Public Review

BEVERLY HILLS, CA — The City's comprehensive guide to making Beverly Hills a more mobility-friendly city is nearing completion, the City announced Wednesday.

An updated version of the City’s Complete Streets Plan draft will be presented at a special Traffic and Parking Commission meeting at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, December 3, in the Municipal Gallery at City Hall.

The Draft Plan provides a "framework for programs, policies and infrastructure projects to make navigating the city easier, more enjoyable and more equitable across all modes: people on foot, on wheels, riding transit and in cars," the City press release said.

The plan is currently structured by mode of transportation to ensure it is user-friendly, the City said. Goals and policies for each mode are identified to better guide decision-makers, and more detailed bikeway network recommendations are featured. There is also a new standalone Action Plan that identifies implementation of priority projects by year and will serve as a working document as tasks are completed, the press release said.

"The plan represents a community-driven planning effort and has a focus on preparing for the opening of the future Metro Purple Line subway stations through recommendations for first/last mile connections," the City of Beverly Hills said.

The community can review the updated plan on the City website. Hard copies of the plan are also available in the City Clerk’s office and the Library.
