SUMMARY:Webinar: Shared Streets\, Slow Streets
DESCRIPTION:Green Action Centre and Bike Winnipeg invite you to join us for a local viewing of the APBP webinar: Shared Streets\, Slow Streets. Timely with all the talk about School Speed Zones. \nThe webinar viewing takes place in the EcoCentre boardroom (3rd floor\, 303 Portage Ave) and will be followed by group discussion of local applications. \nRSVPs appreciated but not necessary. Hope to see you then! \nLearning objectives:\n\nUnderstand the theory behind Sustainable Safety\, which has driven widespread adoption of 30-km (20 mph) zones in the Netherlands\nIdentify the principal elements necessary to design successful 30-km zones\nExamine how design standards might be revised to allow for new spatial forms in North America\n\nThis webinar explores the Dutch theory of Sustainable Safety (similar to Vision Zero) and the engineering and design principles underlying 30-km zones that permit different modes to share the streets safely. The session includes examples of shared street projects in North America\, where these design principles have been adapted to local contexts. \nSustainable Safety is a safe systems approach used in the Netherlands to prevent serious crashes and severe injury. This approach has reduced fatal traffic crashes by 30 percent between 1998 and 2008. As the details of Vision Zero initiatives are being developed\, North American planners can learn from the mistakes and successes of the Dutch. \nThe presentation introduces the underlying principles of Sustainable Safety and focuses on the design and engineering tools used to create streets where different modes can mix at speeds safe for all users. Case studies with both good and bad examples of 30-km zones are included; presenters also discuss examples of shared streets in North America. \nPresenters:\nDick van Veen\, MSc. Eng\, MSc. Arch\, Mobycon BV\nBrice Maryman\, Senior Landscape Architect\, SvR Design
