Just a brief note to encourage you as individuals, groups, and RNOs to sign on to the Denver Deserves Sidewalks call for the City to finally commit to a comprehensive, integrated, and maintained sidewalk network. 

INC has long called for this as well, both in our Delegation-adopted INC Transportation Platform and its predecessor INC Sidewalk Position Statement, as a consistent position that I hope you and your groups will help amplify by signing on and speaking up.

Currently, the Denver Streets Partnership, is hosting community-led walking tours with Councilmembers with neighbors and neighborhoods throughout the city, to experience how bad our sidewalk situation has gotten. You’re welcome to join these “Sidewalk Palooza” tours in your area — check this schedule for the remaining scheduled walks, see the great coverage they’re already getting in Westword, and watch www.DenverSidewalks.com to register and for more announcements.

Catch up with a video of our September INC Transportation Committee meeting featuring DSP’s Jill Locantore on this topic, as well as an update on the continuing work of Councilman Paul Kashmann to advance these issues.

Let’s push the City to get our basic infrastructure taken care of, for the safety and mobility of all residents.
