Sidewalks are the Most Democratic Public Space

Sidewalks are the most democratic public space. When they’re cracked or missing, we send a quiet message: this place isn’t for you.

Objective sidewalk condition surveys change that narrative. They let leaders see the full network, prioritize repairs equitably, and communicate transparently about what gets fixed—and why. That’s how you turn “nice-to-have” walkability into a core service that builds trust.
