	"description": "In early 2016, the Burlington City Council will vote on the city&#x27;s first-ever &quot;Walk-Bike Master Plan.&quot; Done right, this plan will be a blueprint for making Burlington the kind of place where anyone can bike and walk anywhere in safety and comfort. This plan has been a long time coming, and it’s time to get it done. Burlingtonians of all ages want our city to be “Better by Bike.” We want riding on our city&#x27;s streets to be just as safe as riding on our beautiful lakeshore bike path. We want to be able to send our kids off on their bikes without worry. More broadly, we want a city with a 21st century approach to mobility that puts safety and choice first. A 2015 survey conducted by AARP Vermont showed that a majority of Burlingtonians 45 years and older would be extremely to very likely to walk or ride a bike more if there were better crosswalks and separate bike lanes. And only 29% feel that there are currently enough bike lanes for safe biking. Burlington clearly needs better streets for biking and safer crossings for walking! Even with broad support, change never comes easy. There will be pushback from people who think that our streets are only for cars. Too often, people underestimate the positive impact that investments in walking and biking have on the local economy and community. Will you speak up for change? Will you speak up for vibrant streets that are safe and welcoming for everyone? Sign this petition today! Help make change happen. Thank you.                             Local Motion and AARP Vermont P.S. We are asking for your email, your mobile number, and your street address so we can connect you with opportunities to speak out for a transformational walk-bike master plan. We will not add you to any other lists or contact you for anything else without your permission (unless you are already on Local Motion’s list, in which case you will receive our regular communications). Thank you.",
