LA Walks is a citizens' group supporting pedestrian safety, accessibility, convenience, and comfort throughout the community. We are actively engaged with the Transportation Board, TAPS (Trails and Pathways Subcommittee), the County Staff, other volunteer organizations, private developers,and the public to make Los Alamos a safer and more enjoyable place to walk.
