Save the date for this important conversation on active transportation which literally refers to active rather than passive transportation (the kind of transport that requires an automobile!)
As our City gears up to develop our own Active Transportation and Trail Plan, we are bringing national and local expertise to better inform interested parties and assist us in the public process.
Our featured speaker is Joe Gilpin from Alta Planning and Design, experts in pedestrian and bicyclist planning.
