Description:
Speed reduction is a key goal of many transportation projects, but what are the implications for geometric design? What elements make the difference, and how do we make the transition? What works on higher-order streets that aren’t suitable for traditional traffic calming? Panelists will consider these and other questions of interest to practitioners and infrastructure owners.
