Walkable City 4: The Safe Walk (B)
Explore how Vision Zero street design reduces speeding by addressing lane width, parking, street trees, intersections, signals, cycling, and pedestrian zones, with case studies from Lancaster, California, and Queens, New York.
Walkable City 3: The Safe Walk (A)

Learn how to create a comprehensive wayfinding signage system for your municipality from start to finish.

The Congress for the New Urbanism’s Project for Code Reform streamlines the zoning code reform process by providing local governments with place-specific incremental zoning code changes that address the most problematic barriers first, build political will, and ultimately create more walkable, prosperous, and equitable places.
