About PEDS:

Since 1996, PEDS has worked with government agencies, urban designers, community organizations and others to make metro Atlanta walkable. Through education and advocacy, PEDS:

• changes community attitudes to favor walking
• helps ensure the design of pedestrian-friendly communities
• advances the equitable use of transportation funds
• makes sidewalks and crossings accessible to all users
• reduces the risk of pedestrian injury or death in metro Atlanta.

PEDS urges investment in pedestrian facilities, improvement of street design, and change in driver behavior so that streets can be shared safely with pedestrians. Our programs incorporate the three E's of pedestrian safety: education, enforcement and engineering.
