  • Summary

  • Over the past 6 months you have heard from experts in the fields of sustainable cities, physical activity, accessibility, the environment, and multi-modal transportation, discussing how interconnected all these topics are to road safety.

    In this episode, we explored some of these intersectoral connections and the importance of collective action in creating safer urban roads.
    • Road can be reimagined for different purposes at different times of the day. This creative approach allows communities to use the space for non-traditional activities. For example, at the beginning and end of the school day, roads in front of schools are blocked off to traffic so kids have space to move safely as they arrive and leave school.
    • Roads are one of the largest public spaces cities have – any historically they have been narrowly assigned for vehicle use.
    • Initiatives that allow us to be creative, open the roads for multiple road users, and think about all ages and abilities makes for more vibrant and sustainable communities.
