A highlight of 2025 was collaborating with you. Our community "walkshops" are the first phase of our work to add 350+ blocks of new sidewalks in the coming years thanks to the 2024 Seattle Transportation Levy. Thank you, Seattle.
Community walkshop infographic. We detail info about the walkshops, as well as our commitment to delivering hundreds of blocks of new sidewalks where they're needed most. The photo shows folks on a community walkshop.
