But we see not a full city, but one that's ready to unlock its full potential. Imagine this: Less time spent in your car means more time enjoying what our city offers. This isn't just a dream — it's a possibility that calls for our collective action. Reliable transit, protected bike lanes, and pedestrian pathways are keys to this transformation.read moreDeadline Extended - Submit your Blinkie Award Nominations by Sunday, March 17!
