Illumination or lack thereof can drastically change how people perceive and navigate the built environment. This is especially important for people walking and biking, who do not possess headlights, and are vulnerable road users. This presentation explores illumination for active transportation including who's been asking for it, how it can be assessed, what to consider for recommendations, and what treatments are available for practitioners. Join us as we shine a light on this often-overlooked area of active transportation!
This presentation is part of the Transportation Trailblazers track. Participants will gain actionable insights on how they can improve lighting in their community and drive impactful change.
