FHWA, in partnership with the Project for Public Spaces, and INDUS Corporation, is pleased to present a webinar on creating “Streets as Places,” strategies for improving transportation and land use to create destination streets and quality public spaces.
This webinar focuses on contexts that create opportunities for streets that are not only good for mobility, but are also public spaces and destinations in their own right. Speakers present case studies that range from revitalized Main Streets, implemented street plazas and parklets, and flexible street designs that allow for festivals and celebrations. Across the country, communities are realizing the value of vibrant streets and districts that support local commerce and culture. This webinar focuses on how planning for streets as places – in the right context – can also improve traditional performance measures (safety, throughput and travel time) as well.
