Spacing \u2014 in partnership with CodeRedTO<\/a> and the University of Toronto Institute of Transportation Engineers Student Chapter<\/a>, and U of T’s Cities Centre \u2014 is happy to present Jarrett Walker’s lecture “Abundant Access: Public Transit as an Instrument of Freedom”. There will be a Q&A session after Walker’s lecture.<\/p>\n

Walker is one of the most active and vocal advocates for public transit. He believes that transit can be simple, if we focus first on the underlying geometry that all transit technologies share. In his talk here in Toronto, Walker supplies the basic tools, the critical questions, and the means to make smarter decisions about designing and implementing transit services.<\/p>\n

In his book Human Transit<\/em> (Island Press, 2013) \u2014 which will be available for purchase at the event \u2014 explains the fundamental geometry of transit that shapes successful systems; the process for fitting technology to a particular community; and the local choices that lead to transit-friendly development. Whether you are in the field or simply a concerned citizen, here is an accessible guide to achieving successful public transit that will enrich any community.<\/p>\n

Walker has been designing public transit systems for over 20 years. He is an independent consultant in North America and Principal Consultant with MRCagney in Australia. He writes the popular transit blog HumanTransit.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
