The mayor will float a draft of his budget next month, and the Denver Streets Partnership says it's imperative to fund walking and biking to the tune of $22 million.
On Tuesday, the traffic circle on 35th Avenue and Raleigh Street in West Highland was already calming car speeds a day after Denver Public Works installed it.
With more than four months left in 2018, motorists have already ended the lives 15 people walking and biking. It's already been a deadlier year for pedestrians and bicyclists than 2017, when drivers killed 14.
At its current pace, the city won't close the book on 240 miles of missing bike lanes and 2,000 miles of planned sidewalks for more than 100 years, according to the Denver Streets Partnership.
