Travel Well

We are walking, biking, and rolling in Kingston!

Our purpose

The folks that make up the Travel Well Focus Team educate about traffic safety, improve active transportation experiences, and encourage walking and cycling by implementing policy, environmental, and systems change, and programming.

What we are doing

Examples of current projects are:

• The Greenline Wayfinding Plan
• Greenline Safety Management
• Bicycle Valet Kit
• Forsyth Traffic Garden – Coming Soon!
• Construction of Post Office Park
• Bicycle Rack Installation Pilot
• Pedestrian and Bicycle Counts

Travel Well coordinates projects with partners from the City of Kingston, Ulster County, the Complete Streets Advisory Council, The YMCA of Kingston and Ulster’s Bicycle Programs, advocates, and the community.

The Kingston Complete Streets Advisory Council is charged with advising the City on ways Kingston can implement Complete Streets principles in its planning, design and construction activities.
