Livable Streets 2.0 in Toronto

November 7, 2022 @ 11:00 am - 12:35 pm

Livable Streets 2.0 offers a thorough examination of the struggle between automobiles, residents, pedestrians and other users of streets, along with evidence-based, practical strategies for redesigning city street networks that support urban livability.

Join us for a presentation from the author of Livable Streets 2.0, Dr. Bruce Appleyard, Associate Professor of City Planning and Urban Design at San Diego State University.

Following the presentation, we will hear from Dr. André Sorensen (Professor of Human Geography, UTSC) and Nancy Smith Lea (Senior Advisor and Former Director of The Centre for Active Transport) on building more livable streets within the Toronto context. Presentations will be followed by a panel discussion and audience Q & A moderated by Dr. Paul Hess (Professor, Geography & Planning, U of T).

This hybrid event is free and all are welcome to attend. In-person space is limited, and refreshments will be available.

Event and registration information is posted on the U of T Mobility Network site
