Unlocking Multimodality in N. America -- Using Bikes to Better Our Transit Systems

Tuesday, 11 December 2018 - 12:30pm

In recent years, some urban planners have begun to explore ways to unlock Dutch-style multimodality, hoping to utilize the bicycle as a tool to increase public-transit ridership and decrease car dependency. In fact, the case could be made that—with the right conditions—bikes are better placed to deal with the lower population densities and longer distances traveled in North America. 

Explore how we can all learn from the Dutch model of using bikes to feed public transit in this free webinar. Lessons will be easily applicable to a North American audience. Local case studies will be highlighted. 

Panelists include: 
- Chris and Melissa Bruntlett, Building the Cycling City authors and Owner/Operators of Modacity 
- Kat Maines, Planner at Alta Planning + Design 
- Michelle Poyourow, Senior Associate at Jarrett Walker + Associates 

Corinne Kisner, Deputy Director of NACTO, will moderate the conversation.
