DATE: Tuesday, May 17, 2022
TIME: 11am - 12pm PT
Join UC Berkeley SafeTREC to learn more about how agencies and coalitions collaborate to collect and analyze data from Street Story, an online community engagement tool. The panelists will discuss collaborative efforts and how the data has been used to apply for grant funding and implement projects to make walking, biking and rolling safer in their communities. Street Story allows community groups and agencies to collect local information about transportation crashes, near-misses, general hazards, as well as safe locations to travel.
