RSG's Stephen Gayle will be presenting “Complete Streets Implementation” which will share a Complete Streets Fact Sheet which RSG prepared in response to New York State's Complete Streets law that has been in effect for more than a year. The Fact Sheet was developed for the NYS Association of Metropolitan Planning Organizations in 2012, under our Staff Services contract. The purpose of the Fact Sheet is to provide the MPOs a tool to use in explaining to their local government members and potentially the public the concept of Complete Streets and the implementation requirements under the law. This presentation will review the specifics of the New York law, and evidence of complete streets implementation a year after it has been in effect.

A project on which RSG worked with the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission (CCRPC) was recognized with an Excellence in Regional Transportation Award by the National Association of Development Organizations (NADO). The award and project will be featured today at NADO’s 2013 National Rural Transportation Conference in Greenville, SC. RSG’s contributions included designing, developing, and conducting a survey of residents within Chittenden County. The analysis focused on identifying changes and trends in attitudes toward transportation-related issues between 2000 and 2012.

RSG recently released an open-source software package, on The Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN).
