Andy Nash from GreenCityStreets.com will host a workshop on the use of social applications to improve transport planning and operations. We’ll start by identifying existing applications and then move into brainstorming ideas for creating new and improved applications. We’ll be looking at all transport modes (bikes, public transport, walking, etc.) and focus on identifying opportunities for actually implementing applications.
This event will be held on Wednesday, November 14 in San Jose:
MLK Library (Lecture Room 255/257), 150 E. San Fernando St.
And on Friday, November 16th in SF:
SPUR Urban Center, 654 Mission Street
