Ready to Challenge Everything You Know About Traffic?
This book will change how you see our streets
Our next great TDM read has been chosen! On Wednesday, July 9 at 3 p.m. ET, ACT's book club will be diving into Wes Marshall’s Killed by a Traffic Engineer, a provocative and deeply researched exploration of how decades of traffic engineering decisions have prioritized speed and vehicles throughout—often at the expense of safety, community, and human life.
With sharp insight and clear-eyed analysis, Marshall reveals how technical standards became moral hazards and how even well-intentioned designs have produced deadly consequences. This book challenges us to rethink the status quo and imagine streets that serve people first—not just cars. This discussion will spark fresh ideas on how TDM can help reshape our public spaces into places of connection, safety, and equity.
Come be part of a dynamic discussion that will challenge your thinking about our streets. You'll want to read this book, but if you can't, just bring your curiosity and join the conversation. See you there!
Join the discussion!
Wednesday, July 9 at 3 p.m. ET Discussion led by Lauren Mattern of Journey Attendance qualifies for 1 TDM-CP credit. |
