BRADY: Measures to Reduce Traffic

I will support hiring a Bicycle Pedestrian Coordinator for the City of Philadelphia. Creation of such an office, however, would be contingent on an 80% contribution from federal Congestion Mitigation Air Quality (CMAQ), plus the identification and allocation of additional resources sufficient to fund the position.

Furthermore, I will aggressively pursue federal funding on behalf of Philadelphia. Federal funds which are available, such as the CMAQ grant, should not go unused. By promoting and encouraging cycling and walking as modes of transit within the City, we can reduce pollution and congestion.
