Workshop: Redesigning Major Streets For Safety

Workshop: Redesigning Major Streets For Safety

Picture your city’s biggest, widest, most risky arterial. It probably has lots of lanes, lots of cars, frequent crashes and injuries, and traffic swinging from stop-and-go to fast-and-furious. How can we fix it?

Join this workshop for a hands-on look at innovative approaches your city can use to tame speeds and improve safety on dangerous arterials. In this 201-level workshop, we’ll focus on honing the tools needed to implement uncontrolled / mid-block crossings, analyze 5-to-3 and 4-to-3 conversions, and evaluate turn-calming treatments. We’ll also walk through how signal timing improvements can limit drivers’ opportunity to speed, and discuss strategies for making these changes in your city.
