SUMMARY:Confessions of a Recovering Engineer: How to make Human-centered transportation decisions for all of Shreveport’s residents
DESCRIPTION:Charles Marohn\, professional engineer and founder of the Strong Towns movement\, lifts the  curtain on America’s transportation system in his newest book\, Confessions of a Recovering  Engineer. In this book tour presentation\, Marohn demonstrates how the values of engineers and other  transportation professionals are applied in the design process\, and how those priorities differ from the  values of the general public. By showing how transportation investments are a means to an end and  not an end unto themselves\, Marohn reveals how the standard approach to issues like fighting  congestion\, addressing speeding\, and designing intersections only makes transportation problems  worse\, at great cost in terms of both safety and resources. By contrast\, the Strong Towns approach to  transportation focuses on bottom-up techniques for spending less and getting higher returns\, all  while improving quality of life for residents of a community. Fixing our broken transportation system will involve not just engineers\, but local residents and officials who have become effective and empowered advocates\, connected with others to make real change. \n\nAdmission: Free\nPresented by: Community Renewal Institute\, Allendale Strong\, First Presbyterian Church and the University of First Presbyterian speaker series\n\n

DESCRIPTION:A Live Panel Discussion\, hosted by Charles Marohn\nJuly 21\, 12 p.m. Eastern\n\n\n\n\nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER NOW\n\n\n\n\nFor years\, the city of Shreveport\, Louisiana\, has been planning an urban highway expansion that would cut through the heart of the city\, the I-49 “inner-city connector.” And for years\, residents—especially of the Allendale neighborhood that the project would most directly impact—have been fighting back. (Read more about this ongoing fight against highway expansion in Shreveport.) \nIn this free webcast\, you’ll learn from local experts who are leading the charge. They’re spurring important conversation about what an economically thriving neighborhood can be and how people-oriented places\, not highspeed roads\, are the only way to achieve this goal. \nYou’ll hear from neighborhood podcast host Roosevelt Bryant\, city councilwoman LeVette Fuller\, local nonprofit director Kim Mitchell\, and Shreveport-based engineer Tim Wright\, in a discussion hosted by Strong Towns president Charles Marohn. These panelists will share their insights on the complex nature of highway projects and politics\, and discuss their ideas for a stronger Shreveport. \nThis webcast will be helpful for anyone who’s tired of excessive highway spending\, damaging road projects\, and transportation systems that fail to serve residents. If you’re ready for a change\, join the conversation. \n\n\n\n\nREGISTER NOW\n\n\n\n\nP.S. If you’re frustrated by the high costs and dangerous design of transportation in your city and want to learn more about a better way forward\, check out Charles Marohn’s newest book\, Confessions of a Recovering Engineer: Transportation for a Strong Town.
