"Funded by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and performed in conjunction with the National Association of City Transportation Officials, Inc. (NACTO), this report is the culmination of a year-long effort aimed at reviewing pedestrian and bicyclist standards and innovations in large central cities. The study involved a literature review and analysis of the challenges facing large central cities when trying to support pedestrians and bicyclists, as well as a review of several promising approaches being taken in various cities. In September 2005, a peer-to-peer session with representatives from ten cities, and several agencies and advocacy groups, was held to fill in gaps related to these approaches and policy concerns. The following report is a compilation and synthesis of the findings from both these endeavors."
