Space City Stroller Houston Lodging Project (NH=neighborhood) Peter Norton Agree. If people are lucky enough to live where the school is close by with somewhat safe streets the easiest start is for the school / PTO to organize walk or bike busses and encourage students / parents to use them.

Transportation: 69% approval
Public Safety: 55% approval

Turner's 'fix the potholes' is the winning strategy; Houston's biggest challenges are infrastructure — the wise politician should stick to the tested script.
