The jurisdictions and agencies operating in the Indianapolis Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) planning area are constantly making improvements to the pedestrian system in both the public and private sector. Development, especially residential development, usually includes improvements to the pedestrian system. These pedestrian improvements, however, are currently being accomplished in an ad-hoc fashion. Where possible, pedestrian improvements are incorporated into projects, but they may not work together to form a system that links the user from their origin to their destination.

The goal of this study is to incorporate pedestrian considerations into the MPO's long-range transportation plan and encourage the adoption of the plan by the individual jurisdictions within the MPO planning area to create a network of pedestrian facilities that will form a linked, regional, pedestrian system.
