Webinar Description:
Quick Build Safety Projects provide an early opportunity for communities to design context sensitive designs and configurations with low-cost in a short period of time. Additionally, quick build or tactical urbanism projects provide a meaningful way to engage, educate, and encourage people to try and evaluate new roadway designs, and incorporate user feedback for changes and improvements before a more permanent infrastructure project is constructed. Quick Build projects help to accelerate Complete Streets initiatives through rapid installation using less permanent, lower cost, and pre-approved materials that can be more easily removed or replaced and laying the groundwork for more streamlined processes for project delivery.
The purpose of this webinar is to broaden professional understanding of quick build and tactical urbanism demonstration projects, their impacts and the associated opportunities and challenges with implementation and maintenance. Speakers will highlight quick build and demonstration project implementation experiences including planning, implementation, and evaluation strategies and other lessons learned through their efforts.
Learning Objectives:
- Gain a better understanding of a Quick Build and/or Tactical Urbanism project/installation
- Gain insight into noteworthy practices of Quick Build installations in various US states/cities.
- Identify potential benefits to safety and the associated challenges with respect to maintenance and implementation.
