Reducing Car Dependency: Compact Communities, Buses and Trains

As communities continue to be dominated by America's car culture, how long can we continue on this trajectory? How can we break this endless cycle of building more highways? Lack of rail service and public transit in rural and urban communities increases inequities in housing, employment and access to medical care. Living in asphalt wastelands makes walking or biking unsafe.

Communities of color have repeatedly been dispersed to make way for more highways. Differently abled citizens are forced to wait for assistance at busy intersections. At this webinar, learn about ideas to live more healthfully and interactively with our neighbors.

Panelists:

Richard Rudolf: Rail Users Network (pre-recorded)
Madison Butler: Rail Passengers Association
William McDowell: Pittsburgh for Public Transit
Neal Ehardt: Stop TxDOT I-45
