Description
Many cities face challenges to new street layouts, including resistance to change, auto-oriented metrics of success, insufficient funding, parking and loading issues, and land use conflicts. Philadelphia project managers addressed each of these issues in projects — some of which took years — that included painted bikeways, parking-separated bike lanes, and entire complete streets projects, all intended to improve the safety of all roadway users on key West and Southwest Philadelphia corridors. This presentation reveals unique, community-led responses to many of the typical arguments against separated bikeways. Project managers share how they coordinated with more than the typical stakeholders — university safety officers, members of civic groups, non-bikers, and roadway users — to move projects forward through political and timing challenges. Terrain for the tour is level/flat, experience level beginner-intermediate. Wear light clothing and athletic footwear. (Indego E-Bike/Franklion Bikes)
