Join our DiscordOur Core Goals
Safe Streets
We believe everyone deserves to get home safely. By designing streets that offer safe choices for walking and biking, we make our city a nicer place to spend time, while protecting our children, seniors, and neighbors with disabilities. These improvements create more vibrant neighborhoods and reduce traffic for those who drive by giving others a practical way to get around. This productive approach saves lives, eases the commute, and helps our local businesses thrive.
Better Transit
A strong town needs a transit system that is a reliable choice for every resident, not just a last resort. Frequent, dependable buses connect people to jobs and help the city run more efficiently. By making transit an enjoyable and high-quality option, we provide independence for those who cannot drive while reducing congestion for those who do. Itβs a common-sense way to expand freedom of movement for all of Worcester.
Local Accountability
We actively support the Now | Next Citywide Plan, the Vision Zero initiative, the Mobility Action Plan, and the Housing Production Plan to make Worcester more self-reliant, accessible, and affordable. By championing these specific plans, we ensure our tax dollars go toward building housing and infrastructure that offer a real return for our community. This focus on results ensures every resident can participate in our local economy and contributes to a more resilient future for everyone.
