What we do
What we do
At Strong Towns ABQ, we work to create a more resilient and equitable Albuquerque by advocating for policies and projects that strengthen our city. Our efforts include:
Housing Advocacy: Supporting abundant, affordable housing through smarter zoning, by-right incremental density, mixed-use development, creative solutions, and community engagement.
Transportation Improvements & safer streets for all: Championing safer streets for all users, better public transit, and infrastructure that prioritizes people over cars.
Ending Highway Expansion: Opposing costly and ineffective highway expansions like the I-25 S-Curve project, we advocate for better investments in public transit, road maintenance, and infrastructure that prioritize people over cars, helping reduce traffic, pollution, and sprawl.
Public Awareness: Hosting events, creating educational materials, and fostering discussions to empower Burqueños to take action.
Local Accountability: Promoting transparency in city funding and decision-making to ensure thoughtful investments in Albuquerque’s future.
Ending Parking Mandates: Advocating for the removal of outdated parking requirements to encourage more housing, better land use, and thriving, walkable neighborhoods.
We are a volunteer-run group open to everyone who shares a vision of a stronger, more sustainable city. Join us in making meaningful change for our community. Everyone is welcome, no prior knowledge or experience necessary!
Do these values and priorities resonate with you? Do you want to help change the conversation and make a lasting impact on Albuquerque's future? Join us at Strong Towns ABQ!
