BIG NEWS: Columbus just codified a Complete Streets Policy into the city code! ๐
After years of advocacy, organizing, testimony, and public pressure, last night Columbus City Council passed Ordinance 1392-2026.
This is a commitment to safer streets for everyone: pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders, motorists, and people of all ages and abilities.
This policy became significantly stronger because residents spoke up and demanded accountability and transparency.
Thank you to everyone who organized, testified, emailed council, and kept pushing and especially to Councilmember Lourdes Barroso de Padilla for championing this legislation, as well as our partners Yay Bikes!, Strongtowns Columbus, and American Heart Association - Ohio.
But the work isnโt finished. The Transportation & Pedestrian Commission still has not been reactivated, and public accountability must remain part of this work.
Today is still a major win and proof that advocacy works. ๐ช
