Our Approach

People know what’s best for their city.


You know what’s needed. City Thread knows how to get there. Together, we can create bold change.

Our approach to partnerships achieves results quickly and builds lasting, collaborative relationships across your community. 

Using our proven Accelerated Mobility Playbook, our team helps you overcome the barriers that slow progress. We unite local governments and community partners around a shared vision and deliver solutions that work for everyone, in every corner of your city.

We’re here to help.

  • Facilitate conversations and strengthen bonds by reaching people where they are.

  • Understand community interests, needs, and priorities to implement solutions and achieve equitable results.

  • Mobilize diverse coalitions to work toward a safer, more accessible, and connected community.

Beliefs that drive our work

  • People have a right to comfortable, convenient, and safe access to the things they want to see and do in their neighborhoods.

  • Access to employment is a basic right, fueling equity and opportunity for people.

  • Residents know their communities best and should have an active role in deciding what happens in them.

  • Streets, sidewalks, paths, trails, and greenways should work better for everyone who uses them—and EVERYONE uses them.

Outcomes that make it worthwhile

  • People enjoy the results of their efforts and witness bold, meaningful change.

  • Children play safely or travel to school without the threat of crashes due to recklessness. 

  • Fewer traffic crashes and fatalities increase safe, healthy, equitable mobility for all.

  • Access to employment helps stimulate economic growth and improve equity.

  • Choice of transportation options fuels democracy, equity, and social justice, preserving and even improving the environment.
