Please join us for a combined meeting of the Delaware Valley Goods Movement Task Force (DVGMTF) and the Regional Safety Task Force (RSTF). We will be bringing together our regional freight and safety stakeholders for a discussion on considerations for freight in Complete Streets planning and design, and we hope that you will be able to join and participate. In addition to our discussion, we are planning to have a live truck demo following the meeting to allow participants to see a driver's view from the cab of a truck.
Featured Topics:
Kristen Scudder, DVRPC, will share details from the recently published Philadelphia Truck Network and Complete Streets Integration Guidebook.
Bob Dolan, Pennsylvania Motor Truck Association, will discuss driver perspective and blind spots.
Stephen Dunn, The Biking Fireman, will share his experience as a cyclist on the road and as an EMT operating in a large emergency vehicle.
Andrew Lappitt, Middlesex County, NJ, will share some of the recommendations from the Southern Middlesex County Freight Movement Study that plan for truck traffic and its impact on the surrounding communities.
Note: Coffee will be available at 9:30 AM. Lunch will be served following the meeting.
