"BEYOND SPEED BUMPS - Alternatives for Traffic Calming" - Not every town can afford to put in a speed bump! And they can't do it on every street! So here we offer a free seminar of experienced speakers with insightful presentations to prompt ideas about traffic calming, safety and alternative methods for slowing traffic. Creative initiatives often start at grass-roots levels: from intersection painting to street redesign.

Topics and Speakers:

COMMUNITY STREETS - Cyndi Steiner (from New Jersey Bike & Walk Coalition)

HOW FAST IS "TOO FAST" ? - Arnold Anderson (from Essex County Traffic Safety)

THE BIOSWALE AS TRAFFIC CALMING DEVICE - Jeremiah Bergstrom (from the Rutgers Cooperative Extension Water Resources Program)

STREET QUILTING - Laura Torchio (from Project for Public Spaces) and Kimberli Craft
