Transportation Alternatives is a mid-sized nonprofit organization based in New York City that advocates for safer, more accessible streets for all residents. Its mission centers on reclaiming public space from cars by promoting bicycling, walking, and public transit, and it works with New Yorkers across boroughs to push for policy changes and infrastructure improvements. The organization supports its advocacy with data and research, including tools and reports that highlight traffic safety and public-space inequities. It runs initiatives such as the Vision Zero report program and NYC 25x25, and has partnered with cultural institutions, exemplified by a 2024 collaboration with the Whitney Museum of American Art to host a bicycle ride. It has also launched an online serious injury tracker to document traffic crash injuries.
