Contested Streets screening and discussion

On March 11th there will be a screening and panel discussion of Contested Streets, a powerful documentary showing how modern cities can be redesigned to put people first, not cars. Two local streets will be selected for further study of how to re-imagine them as “green streets” designed for human livability.

Panelists include KCMO City Councilmember Jan Marcason and a group of urban planners and landscape architects.  This is a must-see event for anyone interested in bicycle/pedestrian issues, sustainability, urban development, etc.
