We accelerate mobility projects to help people move about their communities more safely, efficiently, and equitably.

For communities that move you.

At City Thread, it’s not just about how people move around their city. We know the real driving force is the residents who live in it, work in it, love it.

The core of what we do is build community. Learning, listening, activating. Strengthening coalitions of diverse city and community groups that are ready to tackle their streets, trails, greenways, park systems and more, so they work better for everyone.

Our team’s expertise, along with our proven roadmap, the Accelerated Mobility Playbook, equips City Thread to address your city’s mobility challenges faster and smarter. Where will we go together?

  • I have had the opportunity and honor of working with Sara and Kyle over the past several years. I have been impressed by their ability to take the complexity out of creating environments and to communicate in ways that are easy to understand, entertaining, and memorable.

  • City Thread provided the support and guidance we needed to make our city safer for people of all ages and abilities to get around. Not only were they there to listen and advise as we faced various challenges, but they also truly understood the issues our team faced while navigating both internal organizational change and external change to our city’s built environment.

  • "City Thread’s approach to equitable advocacy is commendable. They’re definitely thought leaders in building mobility infrastructures that support all the residents within a community and in creating meaningful change in cities throughout the U.S. It’s an honor to partner with them."

    - Charles Brown, founder and CEO, Equitable Cities

  • "Our partnership with City Thread is elevating the way the City of Bentonville does business. From advocacy, project guidance and funding assistance, City Thread provides real solutions to the challenges of building cycling infrastructure. Bentonville, and our cycling network, has certainly witnessed our share of success stories during the last decade. But our relationship with City Thread is putting us in position to complete high quality projects and provide amenities at a rate we never thought was possible."

    - David Wright, Bentonville Parks & Recreation Director
