Institute for Transportation and Development Policy

About us

Since our founding in 1985, ITDP has grown from a small band of cycling activists to a leading organization in the fight to curb climate change, and transform our streets for a better quality of life in our cities. Through high quality public transport, safe and pleasant spaces for walking & cycling, a focus on transit-oriented development, and progressive, people-centered policies, cities are able to provide more equitable access to economic opportunity, community, and culture for everyone, including women, children, and the elderly.
