Silicon Valley Transportation Choices and Healthy Communities Summit

From TransForm:

The Silicon Valley Transportation Summit is a gathering to promote improved transportation networks and complete communities in Santa Clara and San Mateo Counties. The summit aims to foster deep community engagement and meaningful participation in transportation and land use planning processes. We’ll provide trainings on what’s at stake and how to effectively get involved with plans, projects, and policies, as well as accessible and interactive workshops on best practices. The conference also provides a space to connect with public officials, organizations, and community leaders from across the region and learn how to join the movement for better transportation choices and access for all. The conference will have three tracks:

●     Advancing innovative and cost-effective transportation solutions

●     Creating complete communities that are accessible, sustainable, healthy, and equitable.
