This session will explore how streets can be designed to signal a “pedestrian-first” environment, creating a more cohesive public realm identity and expanding flexible programming opportunities while also prioritizing safety. “Resilient” streets can accommodate existing modes of transportation, while also being poised to strategically adapt to emerging mobility trends.
Understand how emerging mobility/access trends are changing the way that cars occupy streets now and in the future.
Learn a range of design strategies for pedestrianizing streets, which can both enhance public realm continuity and protect pedestrian and driver safety.
Understand how changes to streets at the site scale can be evaluated for their impact to urban or regional scale transportation connectivity.
Learn how streets can be designed to be adaptable to future transportation changes, such as self-driving cars, continued increase in ride-share use, and alternative transportation options.
