PPS has long said, “If you plan cities for cars and traffic, you get cars and traffic. If you plan for people and places, you get people and places.”

The PPS approach is to plan streets for people and places, this approach has the ability to improve the safety of our streets, improve mobility, reduce our dependence on fossil fuels, enhance sustainability, and make local and regional communities more resilient.

The broad categories of our community-building transportation services are:

•    Community and Placed Based Planning
•    Capacity building and culture change for Community Based Transportation
