Last year's Bike Summit is this year's StreetSummit, taking place next week - Thursday March 18th and Saturday March 20th. The summit features opening keynote speakers, and a day full of workshops and networking. It's hosted by the Urban and Environmental Policy Institute, which urges attendees to pre-register online by next Monday in order to receive free lunch on Saturday.
The summit organizers recently posted the listing of workshops and speakers, including Janette Sadik-Khan, Carl Anthony, Charlie Gandy, Lydia Avila, Don Shoup and many more. The full workshop listing follows after the jump. I'll be previewing the StreetSummit next week, asking readers to let me know which workshops you'd like me to cover.
