Join our consortium partners at the Center for Pedestrian and Bicyclist Safety (CPBS) and guest speakers on Wednesday, December 11, 2024 at 10am PST for a discussion of street livability and safety through the works of Bruce Appleyard, Associate Professor of City Planning and Urban Design at San Diego State University, and Wes Marshall, Professor of Civil Engineering at the University of Colorado Denver.
Street Livability and Safety
Wednesday, December 11, 2024 | 10am - 11am PST
Gain insight on the conflict, power, and promise of our streets as discussed in Livable Streets 2.0 by Bruce Appleyard. Then discover the surprising truths behind our transportation systems in Killed by a Traffic Engineer: Shattering the Delusion that Science Underlies our Transportation System where Wes Marshall uncovers how flawed assumptions, not science, shape our streets —and how we can reclaim them for safer, more equitable communities for all road users.

About the CPBS
The Center for Pedestrian and Bicyclist Safety (CPBS) is a Tier-1 University Transportation Center (UTC) supported by the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) and led by the University of New Mexico (UNM). CPBS’s goal is to eliminate pedestrian and bicyclist fatalities and serious injuries through research, education, technology transfer, and workforce development.
The UC Berkeley team, led by SafeTREC director Julia Griswold, is one of five partnering institutions, along with the University of New Mexico, San Diego State University, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, and University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
