Boston's Complete Streets Initiative: Design Guidelines for Multimodal, Green and Smart Public Spaces "The car is no longer the king in Boston." With these words, in fall 2009, Mayor Thomas M. Menino ushered in a new era of street design in the City of Boston. Come hear about Boston's  Complete Streets approach which is putting pedestrians, bicyclists and transit users on equal footing with motor-vehicle drivers. The initiative aims to improve the quality of life in Boston by creating streets that are both great public spaces and sustainable transportation networks. It embraces innovation to address climate change and promote healthy living. www.bostoncompletestreets.org Presented by: Vineet Gupta, Director of Planning Boston Transportation Department Thursday, March 31st 12-1pm BRA Board Room, 9th Floor City Hall, Open to the Public RSVP: [email protected]
