2011 Complete Streets Workshop (Sussex, Warren, Morris Counties) (CM | 2.5)

A Complete Streets Workshop, focused on providing municipal and county officials with information on planning for Complete Streets in both suburban and rural areas.

The event is being sponsored by the County of Sussex, and in cooperation with Morris and Warren Counties, the NJDOT and the Sussex County YMCA.

The Complete Streets Workshop will feature presenters from NJDOT, from Michael Baker Jr., The RBA Group, and will also include two transportation attorneys who will address liability concerns with respect to Counties and municipalities.

The workshop will also include case studies from a County and municipal perspective demonstrating that there is no singular design prescription for Complete Streets; each one is unique and responds to its community context. A complete street in a rural area will look quite different from a complete street in a highly urban area, but both are designed to balance safety and convenience for everyone using the road.

Registration is limited to the first 100 registrants. Deadline for registration is March 15. The $10 fee, which includes a “box supper” and handouts. Go to www.morrisplanning.org to find theregistration form.
