When Driving Is Not An Option: Steering Away from Car Dependency by Anna Zivarts | An Island Press book

Eno Webinar: When Driving Isn’t an Option

Thursday, 5 September 2024 - 2:00pm

Across the United States, millions of people navigate a transportation system built primarily for drivers—yet one-third of the population does not hold a driver’s license. Involuntary nondrivers, including disabled individuals, low-income communities, the elderly, and other marginalized groups, are often overlooked in transportation planning. 

This webinar delves into the realities of those who cannot or choose not to drive, as detailed in When Driving Is Not an Option by disability advocate and author Anna Zivarts. Zivarts will discuss how centering transportation design around nondrivers can create healthier, more equitable, and climate-friendly communities for everyone.
