Episode 21: Navigating the path to safer roads in the US and beyond
In this special episode of Better Cities by Design, we have convened a panel of experts to discuss a topic that’s important for all cities: road safety. We’re exploring this persistent challenge in the context of the United States, where traffic accidents are the number one cause of death for people under the age of 55, despite the significant technological advances we’ve seen over the past two decades. To find out what more can be done to make the roads in and around US cities safer, we speak with Laura Chace, President and CEO of the Intelligent Transportation Society of America, Brian Cronin, Director of the Intelligent Transportation Systems Joint Program Office at the Federal Highway Administration, part of the US Department of Transportation, and Ramin Massoumi, Global Solutions Director – Mobility and Connected Highways at Arcadis.
