The Hack-A-Street Challenge invites young innovators, programmers, data scientists, urban planners, and change makers to design digital solutions addressing how we can make our streets more pedestrian-friendly to adapt and thrive in response to the growing pressures of urbanization, the climate crisis, and the need for improved safety.

The Challenge Statement: The benefits of having walkable communities are clear, but identifying priority areas in need of improvement and determining the best approach for change within unique local contexts can be quite challenging. How can digital solutions be leveraged to plan for better streets that prioritize pedestrian safety, accessibility, and mobility?
