Show Notes
This week we replay the morning plenary broadcast live from the Denver Live.Ride.Share conference that happened last month. Jill Locantore of WalkDenver introduces University of Virginia Professor Peter Norton, author of Fighting Traffic who discusses how automobiles were sold to the public and Gabe Klein, former DOT Director in Washington DC and Chicago who talks about what he believes their future might be.
Peter's talk is at the 5 minute mark and Gabe's starts at 28:15. Questions from the audience and a discussion between the two start at 1:02.15 if you're short on time.
