Workshop: Don’t Give Up at the Intersection
Tuesday, May 7 | 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
Don’t think you have room for a protected intersection? Not sure how to give bikes priority overturning cars? Facilitated by Alta, this practical training combines the power of time (signals) and space (geometric solutions) for tricky bikeway intersections. Learn how to get people on bikes and micromobility devices safely through an intersection using innovative best practices and easy-to-implement standards-based alternatives. The latest version of this hands-on workshop includes key updates featured in the upcoming 3rd Edition of the NACTO Urban Bikeway Design Guide. Participants will engage with leading practitioners who specialize in bike intersection design, work with peers to problem-solve challenging intersections, and apply their new skills to streets like theirs. So, sharpen your pencils and bring your straight edge for a hands-on design experience, applying techniques such as checking a turn radius or calculating a signal phase, and roll away with the skills to make your city’s bikeway intersections safe and inviting for people of all ages and abilities.
Alta Speaker: Derek Abe
