We seek to enhance our walking environment and remove barriers that restrict our ability to walk comfortably. If you are interested in... Reducing speeding on neighborhood streets A city where kids can walk, bicycle, and play safely outside The safety and mobility of the elderly and persons with disabilities Viable transportation choices that work for all users Ensuring that Alameda’s roads provide for pedestrian safety and convenience ...then join PFA and add strength to our voice to make Alameda an inviting walkable community. Walking connects people to their surroundings: the sights, sounds, smells and opportunities to meet neighbors develop a feeling of pride and ownership. People who feel connected to their community are less likely to damage it.
