What We Do
Walkable streets enhance public safety, improve quality of life and increase economic activity. With this in mind, the D.C. City Council established the Pedestrian Advisory Council (D.C. PAC) in 2010 to advise the Mayor, D.C. Council, and D.C. government agencies on pedestrian safety and accessibility (D.C. Code § 50-1931).
D.C. PAC’s Objectives
- Develop policy recommendations to the Mayor and the Council.
- Review existing city policies, practices, and processes that affect the pedestrian environment in light of best practices from other jurisdictions.
- Monitor implementation of the Pedestrian Master Plan.
- Identify opportunities to support city officials to better address pedestrian issues, and educate, engage, and learn from the public on pedestrian issues.
