IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0IMPROVE PEDESTRIAN-BIKE SAFETY AND ACCESS: WELL-DESIGNED AND WELL- IMPLEMENTED INFRASTRUCTURE CONNECTS PEOPLE TO JOBS, SCHOOLS, AND SERVICES. UNFORTUNATELY, IN HOUSTON, PEOPLE WHO WALK, USE A WHEELCHAIR, OR BIKE ARE VULNERABLE BECAUSE OF NON-EXISTENT, POOR QUALITY, OR EVEN DANGEROUS INFRASTRUCTURE. TO INCREASE PEDESTRIAN AND BIKE SAFETY, LINK HOUSTON WILL ADVOCATE TO IDENTIFY AND REMEDIATE THE 10 MOST DANGEROUS INTERSECTIONS IN HOUSTON.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0KEEP COMMUNITIES UNITED: WITH MAJOR CAPITAL INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT IN PROGRESS TO MODERNIZE AND EXPAND I-45N, ADVOCACY IS KEY TO AMPLIFYING THE VOICES OF HISTORICALLY UNDER-RESOURCED COMMUNITIES. PROJECTS OF THIS MAGNITUDE DISPLACE RESIDENTS AND DIVIDE COMMUNITIES FROM ONE ANOTHER AND FROM SERVICES THE COMMUNITY HAS DEPENDED UPON FOR GENERATIONS. TO KEEP COMMUNITIES UNITED, LINK HOUSTON WILL ORGANIZE COMMUNITY OUTREACH TO EDUCATE RESIDENTS ON POLITICAL ADVOCACY AND WILL CALL FOR ENHANCED INTERSECTION DESIGNS NEAR SCHOOLS ALONG I-45N THAT WILL ENSURE SAFE LOCAL CONNECTIVITY FOR PEDESTRIANS AND BICYCLISTS, TO BE REFLECTED IN TXDOT'S FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT.
