Overview

Everyone walks at some point when getting around in Delaware, including walking to a parked car or getting off a bus. While cars are the most used form of transportation in our state, walking is the most universal and fundamental mode of transportation. For some Delawareans, walking is their primary mode of transportation.

The Delaware Pedestrian Action Plan provides a path for DelDOT to make safe, accessible, connected, and equitable transportation facilities for all. Phase I of the plan was published in October 2022 to coincide with Pedestrian Safety Awareness Month. 

Vision Statement of the Pedestrian Action Plan

DelDOT continues to strive toward zero deaths in order to eliminate fatalities and serious injuries for all modes of travel. This plan will outline clear steps toward ensuring a safe, accessible, connected, and equitable network for pedestrians traveling along state-maintained roadways.
