5. Translate Ideas into Action with a Working Group
VISION
San Jose/Guerrero will achieve its potential to become a truly neighborhood main street if the corridor becomes safer and more comfortable for all users, especially those who are not driving. This can be accomplished first and foremost by reducing vehicle speeds and second by dedicating more Right Of Way (ROW) for pedestrians and the creation of community public space.
