About

The City of Hawthorne is creating a new Active Transportation Plan (ATP), and we would like your input on what we can do to make Hawthorne a better place to walk, bike, and roll! 

The ATP will provide a clear and comprehensive framework for safe, convenient transit and non-motorized transportation options throughout the City. The ATP will serve as both a master plan and a policy document to guide the development and maintenance of active transportation infrastructure, including sidewalks, bikeways, and Safe Routes to School programs.

The goals of the Plan include:

• Improving bicycle and pedestrian connectivity and safety by expanding existing bicycle networks
• Enhancing pedestrian circulation
• Reducing vehicle trips
• Creating complete streets
• Prioritizing access to transit
• Advancing improvements that foster a healthy and livable community

This Plan will help integrate proposed projects into the City's future developments and unlock more funding opportunities such as grants and other aid from State and Federal agencies. The development of this Plan will occur simultaneously and in coordination with the ongoing General Plan update.
