Abstract | Eulois Cleckley, Executive Director of the Denver Department of Transportation & Infrastructure in Colorado, USA, discusses how he helped launch a new transportation and infrastructure department in a large urban city. Cleckley, who serves as president of both the National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO) as well as the Colorado Chapter of the Conference of Minority Transportation Officials (COMTO), also shares insights on how cities are working together to achieve safer, more equitable environments for all road users in a post-COVID environment. Finally, he touches on an upcoming career move this summer to Miami-Dade County in Florida, USA as its new Director and CEO of Transportation and Public Works. |

Abstract | Human behaviors played a central role in spreading COVID-19, and initial lockdowns aimed to slow the spread by localizing movements and limiting contact with other people. To aid reopening decisions, a team of U of M researchers in the emerging field of “movement ecology” developed models showing the effects of contact and movement patterns. |

Abstract | With the COVID-19 pandemic came a rapid increase in demand for safe, physically distant space for walking and cycling. Thousands of cities around the world responded by rolling out new active mobility infrastructure in existing roadways. While the pace and scale of these adaptations have been widely praised by advocates, cities’ responses have also been critiqued for being inequitable, arbitrary, and out of touch with the communities’ needs. The transport profession’s experience during the pandemic underscores a longstanding need for new best practices for providing timely, safe, and equitable walking and cycling facilities. This webinar will highlight research that seeks to identify and develop such practices. Based on her work to document pandemic-induced infrastructure changes in the Shifting Streets COVID-19 Mobility Database, Dr. Tabitha Combs will present terminology for describing and evaluating these changes; summarize how, when, and why cities implemented them, and lay out a research agenda for understanding the impacts of these actions and the processes behind them. |
