E 30th Street
Location : Des Moines, Iowa
Partners : Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) of Des Moines, Fairgrounds Neighborhood
The CDL worked with the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) of Des Moines to promote complete street policies along E 30th street within the Fairgrounds Neighborhood. The Fairgrounds neighborhood is one of Des Moines’ older neighborhoods but has recently struggled with crime and deterioration of infrastructure – especially the corridor which is known for high amounts of accidents, poor access and limited walkability. Because this neighborhood attracts more than 1 million people annually, an initiative has been made to incorporate policies regarding mode accommodation and accessibility improvements. Further, the CDL addressed the environmental, health, social or economic benefits of including green infrastructure within this corridor.
