The City of Escondido is developing a Comprehensive Active Transportation Strategy (CATS). This strategy will serve as a guide to better connect and improve the City’s transportation network so that it provides alternative options to driving. Active transportation includes walking, wheeling, bicycling, scootering, and any other fully or partially human-powered travel mode. Active transportation also complements other modes of travel, such as public transit, as many people use active modes to complete the first and/or last mile of their transit trips (i.e., to get to/from transit stops). The strategy will look for opportunities to increase access to these active modes through supportive policies and new and improved infrastructure such as sidewalks, crosswalks, and bicycle facilities.
