CM #TBA

Guest Host: APA Private Practice Division
What does it mean for a street or trail to be sustainable and/or resilient? From design for drainage, material selection, to heat mitigation and maintenance regimes, many factors come into play. As climate impacts intensify and communities seek healthier, lower-carbon transportation options, practitioners are increasingly called to deliver infrastructure that performs under stress while supporting everyday mobility. The presentation will discuss sustainability and resilience in the context of multimodal transportation, with consideration for stormwater management, conversion of impervious to pervious surfaces, heat mitigation and trees, and user experience. It will highlight strategies and examples for applying guidance to real world infrastructure, including working across departments and developing consensus on treatments for constrained conditions.
