We're improving our transportation network through the Vital Streets Initiative. In this site you can see our progress, where we are making improvements, and how the program works.
What is Vital Streets?
Vital Streets = Complete Streets + Green Infrastructure
In 2014, Grand Rapids voters established the Vital Streets fund. This fund dedicates its focus to improving our street conditions. This focus is fueled by our community values:
- Safety
- Healthy places
- Vibrant economy
- Environmental sustainability
- Diverse transportation options

Below are a series of dashboards, maps, and reports related showing to the state of this program.
One of the overarching goals of the Vital Streets program is to increase our road conditions. Using the PASER rating system we measure our street conditions annually. Vital Street's goal is to have 70% of streets in good or fair condition by 2031 (PASER 10 - 5).
