Complete Streets
Complete Streets
A Complete Streets Approach focuses on designing and building safer streets for everyone including those who walk, bike, use a wheelchair, use public transportation, and drive. In September 2024, the City of San Antonio updated its Complete Streets Policy. NOW we are creating a Complete Street Design Guide which anyone can use to design a Complete Street. The Design Guide will include infrastructure recommendations, street types, and a prioritization of recommendations.
The Future of Cycling & Multimodal Transportation in San Antonio
Join the San Antonio biking community, City of San Antonio Transportation Department, and other stakeholder groups for a discussion on the state of biking/walking/active transportation in San Antonio. We will discuss the projects, policies, and plans in the works that will impact the future of all road users in San Antonio! Meeting takes place in Hermann Sons Ballroom.

We need your help developing some types of streets for the Design Guide. Each of these types of streets (called "typologies") has a different job and is designed differently to handle the traffic and activity that happens on them. Right now we have 6 draft street types to consider:
- Rural roads for agricultural land use
- Park streets in and around recreation and open spaces
- Neighborhood streets in single family neighborhoods
- Connector streets surrounded by commercial businesses and big parking lots
- Industrial streets surrounded warehouses and manufacturing
- Primary/Main streets surrounded by a mix of businesses, housing, entertainment, and lots of foot traffic.
