*AT Webinar: Wed, March 20th, 2-3pm* Navigating without curbs: Accessibility on shared streets

Shared streets are becoming a common Placemaking tool for our communities. Creating streets where the curbs are removed in favor of low-speed and vibrant shared spaces creates challenges for users who have vision impairment, both in terms of identifying conflicts with other users and navigating a corridor with minimally defined edges. This webinar will explore the latest guidance in addressing the needs of persons with no or low vision in shared streets and plazas.

Presenters:

- James Elliott, Toole Design - Elizabeth Hilton, Federal Highway Administration, Office of Infrastructure - Dylan Passmore, City of Vancouver - Janet Barlow, Accessible Design for the Blind
