Are you someone who likes to sample a product before you buy? Is your community striving to reduce pedestrian injuries and fatalities? If so, you will be interested in learning more about Safe Street Demos, which allow community members to “test-out” new street designs and provide feedback on whether or not the improvements should be made permanent. Safe Street Demos temporarily reconfigure the street to provide better and safer opportunities for kids, seniors, and community members to walk, bicycle, and access transit. Join the Transportation Agency for Monterey County as they share their experience implementing the Broadway Avenue Safe Street Demo, and learn how to use this low-cost tool to refine engineering designs and build community support.
