Revitalizing Main Streets Program

The Revitalizing Main Streets Program began as a part of Colorado’s COVID-19 Recovery Plan, with a $30 million allocation from the state legislature in March 2021. In June 2021, Senate Bill 260 provided $85 million in additional funding for the program over the next 10 years. This program is intended to help communities across the state implement transportation-related projects that improve safety and yield long-term benefits to community main streets. When defining a main street, CDOT is aiming to support areas in or adjacent to community-focused, downtowns where people work, dine and shop. These routes help form a specific region’s identity and act as the major economic hub in many towns and cities across Colorado.

The New Transportation Demand Management: An Implementation Guide for City Officials

Americans’ dependence on cars and trucks as the dominant means of personal transportation is built on a foundation of dispersed and isolated land use patterns and automobile-centric urban street design, both of which have in turn been created by a complex array of policy and investment decisions. Untangling this complex web of rules and regulations requires a systematic approach to updating policy incentives to align with broadly held public goals—for example, the goal of creating transportation systems that provide equitable; affordable; and sustainable access to jobs, education, healthy food, recreation, and community for all.
