Speaking

Effective safety planning plays a crucial role in creating equitable and thriving communities. Join Dan Gallagher, AICP, as he facilitates a panel featuring projects from Pinellas County and FDOT District 5. The panelists, Kathy Gademer, AICP (City of Dunedin), Kristof Devastey (Fehr & Peers), Kyle Simpson, AICP (Forward Pinellas), and Nousheen Rahman, AICP (Forward Pinellas), will present their innovative projects that advance transportation safety at the local, regional, and state levels.

During this session, the panelists will share lessons learned on planning for and implementing safety improvements in communities that have traditionally been sidelined, particularly in decision-making processes that directly impact their mobility options. The panelists will also share transferable ideas and takeaways for other communities aiming to incorporate equity considerations into their safety planning activities.
