Talking Headways Podcast: Designing City Streets for People

11:41 AM EST on March 10, 2017

This week Corinne Kisner and Matthew Roe of the National Association of City Transportation Officials tell us about their influential series of street design guides -- manuals that give transportation engineers "permission" to reorient streets so walking, biking, and transit come first. Listen in and learn how the guides are put together and how cities are using them to change their streets to prioritize people instead of cars.
