June 6 panel discussion: The future of micro-mobility in Atlanta
|
Atlanta may have the highest ratio of e-scooters to residents of any city in the country. And the flood of new devices in Atlanta is far ahead of the city's infrastructure, regulations and enforcement capacity.
Please join us for a lively panel discussion about e-scooters and
other shareable transportation devices in Atlanta.
June 6, 6:00 - 7:30 p.m.
5th floor Conference Center
close to Midtown MARTA station
Panelists include:
- Amir Farokhi, District 2 City Council member
- Cary Bearn, Interim Director of Atlanta's Office of Mobility Planning
- Dan Hourigan, Director of Transportation and Sustainability at the Midtown Alliance
- Beau Brouillette, who relies on walking to get around and is fed up with dodging scooters
Sally Flocks, PEDS' President & CEO, will moderate the discussion.
We hope you can join us to hear panelists discuss what changes are needed and how soon Atlanta will implement them.

Local champions strengthen grassroots advocacy

increase the amount, diversity, and effectiveness of local advocates.
We're thrilled that advocates in Locust Grove, Mechanicsville, and Thomasville Heights are working with us to make their streets safer and more inviting places to walk.
In each neighborhood, a Community Captain is taking the lead engaging other residents in community conversations, pedestrian advocacy workshops, walking audits, and pop-up projects.

We're grateful for the opportunity to partner with Allison Woodley-Tyehimba, Makeisha Robey, Felicia Morris, and Sherry Cullins in their communities. |
A big thanks to Kaiser Permanente for enabling us to mobilize and train new advocates.

Your gifts help make safe sidewalks and crossings a reality .
