The DBA actively engages in downtown advocacy and is recognized by Boise City Council as the primary advocate on downtown issues. This enables the DBA to take leadership roles in downtown issues that impact the downtown economy such as parking, access and transportation; vending, vagrancy, noise and skateboarding, new business attraction, business retention, vacancy rates and other economic development issues.

Transportation
Downtown Boise Mobility Study
The purpose of this on-going study is to develop a comprehensive approach to mobility within downtown Boise and for people traveling from, to and through the downtown area. Our vision for downtown Boise includes:
- An urban, pedestrian-oriented setting characterized by ease of movement and freedom from congestion for people and manageable congestion for vehicles.
- A vibrant mix of uses, including housing, offices, services, retail, restaurants, hotels, public spaces, and cultural, entertainment, research and learning opportunities.
- An interconnected, multi-modal system of transportation that sustains
this character and connects downtown Boise to the larger region.
- Smooth connectivity between various activity centers within the study area.
Work on the study began in the spring of 2003. It is expected to take about a year to complete. For more information, visit www.VallyRide.com.
