On February 26th, the Silicon Valley Bike Summit will address the ways each of us can play a significant role in making our streets safer for all. We all want to see roads that both motorists and bicyclists can enjoy in safety and in comfort, yet the combination of antiquated design, poor maintenance, and aggressive behavior by a small minority of road users can keep some people from considering riding a bike.
Location: Oshman Family Jewish Community Center - Schultz Cultural Arts Hall, 3921 Fabian Way, Palo Alto
These are challenges that require participation from all types of roadway users to solve. To bridge the gap between motorists and cyclists, the Summit will feature a panel discussion and audience question and answer session that explores road safety from multiple perspectives. The panel features members of our Roadway Safety Solutions Team, a multi-jurisdictional and multi-agency collaborative, as well as local innovators who are working to change the roadway environment in our area. Join us to learn about recent progress and upcoming strategies in promoting bicycling through improving safety.
The panel will include:
