EQ-3: Support equitable public infrastructure

Support public infrastructure that enables economic mobility, health, and safety for all community members.

Assess local social vulnerabilities and the public infrastructure or infrastructure design needed to reduce those vulnerabilities long term.

Prioritize investments in infrastructure that enable economic mobility, health, and safety, such as:

  1. Accessible public transportation
  2. Complete Streets policies
  3. Green infrastructure to reduce urban heat effects
  4. Affordable housing accessible to transit and other public infrastructure, including schools and community spaces
  5. Community recreation spaces

For implementation guidance on specific types of infrastructure, refer to: SP-5; SP-12 SP-14; SP-15; SP-19; EF-4; NS-14
