How realistic is DOT policy when “excessive cost” gives local staff an excuse to ignore complete street principles?
If there is a cost exception in a complete streets policy, it must be carefully defined for the correct project scope. The policy must also include a clear procedure for justifying this and any other exception. This procedure should require high-level approval from a senior manager, so that simply ‘ignoring’ the complete streets principle is not an option.
