Thank you, Dave and Wendy. I also attended the webinar and thought it was worthwhile.
I think a very important takeaway is that a road diet, unlike a human diet emphasizing broccoli and quinoa, can actually feel positive to the non-biking and non-pedestrian community! It's possible for all parties (drivers, walkers, bikers, businesses, etc.)
to benefit. And a road diet can actually IMPROVE transportation volume and speed for motorists. For example, roundabouts not only reduce serious accidents but they also mean that motorists don't have to unnecessarily wait for a red light when there's no
vehicles or pedestrians.
