The Active Transportation Resource Center (ATRC), along with Caltrans, is hosting two trainings next month intended to guide practitioners in the planning and design of bicycle routes along roadways in California. These free, day-long introductory courses are designed for architects, planners, engineers from local, regional and state agencies to “explore the tools used to assess and evaluate the suitability of a transportation route and facilitate its use by all types of cyclists.” Larry Moore, a retired Caltrans engineer, will teach both courses.
According to the ATRC, participants can expect to:
-
Survey California’s commitment to multi-modal transportation
-
Learn how to apply bicycle design concepts balancing multiple needs on a specific route
-
Explore the tools used to assess and evaluate the suitability of a transportation route and facilitate its use by all types of cyclists
-
Discuss the current policy climate related to the future of active transportation
