  • Increasing the mode share for active transportation modes (walking, biking, and transit) from 19% to 40% of local work trips by 2030

  • Increasing the availability of transit and shared mobility services from 61% to 100% by 2030 by increasing the proportion of residents within a quarter-mile walkshed of frequent transit corridors to 30% and by providing on-demand transit options to the rest of the City
