The Friends of Shelbourne Valley are putting on a free transportation visioning forum, featuring guest speaker Todd Litman on Sunday, September 9th from 1:30-4pm at St. Aidan’s United Church at 3703 St. Aidans Street.
- What does a great street look like?
- How can Shelbourne be improved to better serve our community?
- What are ways to make Shelbourne more pleasant and safe for walking?
- Should bike lanes be on the street or up on an expanded sidewalk area on a separated bike track?
- What might improved public transit look like? How would bus bays work (or not)?
- How can we create a ‘complete street’ that serves everybody’s needs: pedestrians, cyclists, motorists, bus users, businesses and nearby residents?
- How can amenities, such as schools, library, shopping, recreation, etc. be more accessible?
Todd Litman is an internationally recognized authority from the Victoria Transportation Policy Institute, an independent research organization dedicated to developing innovative and practical solutions to transportation problems.
