Trailer: Moving Beyond the Automobile
Today is an exciting day here at Streetfilms as we are officially announcing the debut of our 10-part series “Moving Beyond the Automobile” (MBA). Each Tuesday over the next ten weeks, tune in to Streetfilms as we’ll be posting a new chapter about smart and proven strategies to reduce traffic and improve street safety for all users.
We’ll be tackling many fascinating topics in the next few months from “Bus Rapid Transit” to “Congestion Pricing” to “Car Share” to show how each can help people to use cars less – or not at all.
We’ve been out talking to the experts. Well-respected voices like former Bogotá mayor Enrique Peñalosa, Tri-state Transportation’s Kate Slevin, Commissioner of NYC Department of Transportation Janette Sadik-Khan, Portland’s Mayor Sam Adams, former 4-term Mayor of Milwaukee, and President of the Congress for New Urbanism John Norquist and dozens of other transportation authorities across the country to get their input and advice.
At about the halfway point of the series, we’ll also be posting a MBA curriculum that includes lessons and discussion points for each of these fun and important films.
Streetfilms would like to thank The Fund for the Environment & Urban Life for making this series possible.
