I'd also assume they can bring experience form other jurisdiction and look at the research to find what works best.



We also have plenty of bad sidewalks and areas with no sidewalks. I'd assume a walking coordinator makes sure paths are in the right spots along desire lines, making sure crossing are in appropriate spots etc. The city is full of examples of poor decisions made in the past that are sill or non-sensicle, and had we had a person to ensure we are doing the right things, well it probably would save money fixing them. All little things than can improve safety and efficiency.



It's a minuscule amount of money compared to what is spent on interchanges every year. But apparently a great dog whistle.
I think you can probably find someone who already works for the City to tackle these Herculean tasks.
