A Road Diet, sometimes called a road reconfiguration, is a type of roadway project that can improve safety for all users by reducing crash severity, reducing vehicle speeds, shortening pedestrian crossing distances, and creating space for bikeways, among other benefits.
This proven safety countermeasure is a tool that can be used as a part of your Complete Street’s strategies. This workshop will discuss the benefits of road diets and evaluate the right candidates for this approach.
Join us for a virtual workshop led by FHWA Resource Center staff June 28-29 from 9:00 to 11:30 AM CDT each day. Registration is open.
