Abundant Access: Planning Urban Transportation for a Free Society
Cars seem to give us freedom, but only until we get stuck in traffic. What's more, our car-centered transportation system is the opposite of freedom for people who can't or shouldn't drive. It can literally trap them in their homes, or endanger their lives if they try to walk or cycle. What would it mean to plan transportation with freedom as the primary goal? How do new technologies change our options? And how might our world be better as a result?
Since 1991, Walker has been a transit planner, helping design transit networks and policies for a huge range of communities. His mission is to start conversations about how transit works, and how we can use it to create better cities and towns.
