The Complete Streets Act of 2021 aims to improve safety and accessibility for all road users by requiring states to establish complete streets programs. It directs states to provide technical assistance and grants for designing and constructing complete streets, which prioritize pedestrians, cyclists, transit users, and drivers.

Finally, it requires states to allocate a portion of their highway funds to support these programs.
