The DNPA is providing funding to communities to assist in the design and implementation of low-cost pop-up, tactical urbanism projects that support active living in Indiana. This funding will assist grantees in the planning, preparation, and implementation of one or more tactical urbanism projects in their communities.
Key expectations for the demonstration projects are as follows:
- Must be quickly completed and implemented while supporting a range of active transportation options in the community
- Special consideration will be given to projects that enhance access to parks, playgrounds, schools, childcare settings, shopping areas, transit stops, and other areas children visit often
- Support underserved populations in the community with specific emphasis on addressing the impacts of structural barriers to health for these populations
- Include public input and involvement as part of the planning and implementation process with a focus on equity
- Include an evaluation documenting successes and challenges along with future planned longterm changes
Examples of projects to be funded include:
- Temporary bicycle and pedestrian safety demonstration projects that lead to long-term changes
- Purchase and deployment of temporary traffic calming equipment and projects, such as curb extensions, traffic circles, and high visibility crosswalks, that may be reused in other locations
- Temporary protected bike lanes, pedestrian lanes, parklets, projects to teach children safe walking and bicycling, and other similar facilities.
