There is no one-size-fits-all definition of a Complete Street, rather, it is a design approach that integrates people and places in the planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of our transportation networks. This results in a connected system where certain streets prioritize different modes of travel – not every street can prioritize all modes, but each mode can have a holistic network that increases accessibility for people of all ages and abilities; balances the needs of different travel options; and supports local land uses, economies, cultures, and natural environments.

Through implementation of the Complete Streets Plan (adopted April 2021), the City aims to transform Beverly Hills from an auto-dominated community to one that embraces all modes of travel, reduces vehicle trips on our streets, and can be truly considered a world class bicycling city. This plan envisions a future where students can bike to school, families can take transit to their destinations, people of all ages can walk to neighborhood amenities, and the Beverly Hills community is a model for other jurisdictions.

Minimum Grid Bicycle Markings
On January 4, 2022, the City Council approved installation of a Minimum Grid Bikeway Network. The term “minimum grid” refers to the concept of quickly implementing a basic bikeway network, while also continuing to pursue longer-range efforts to expand and upgrade cycling infrastructure. View the January 4, 2022 staff report and visit the Minimum Grid webpage for more details. Staff anticipates installation of the Minimum Grid Network will be completed by April 2022.
