SUMMARY:Micromobility 2.0 Workshop: Smarter Strategies for Safe Travel
DESCRIPTION:The Micromobility 2.0 Workshop was held on Friday\, March 22\, 2024. The Workshop bridged research and practice surrounding the use of micromobility devices (e-bikes\, e-scooters\, bicycles\, etc.) and how best to address safety\, infrastructure\, and the use of innovative technology. \nView Summary Report \nWorkshop sessions covered: \n\nThe state of the practice and emerging micromobility challenges in New Jersey\nHow to use a Vision Zero lens to address safety for all road users\nInnovative technology related to data collection\, analysis\, prediction\, and limitations/li>\nSolutions to safety issues using social\, infrastructure\, and technological strategies/li>\n\nWorkshop attendees included engineers\, urban planners\, public health professionals\, innovative technology experts and scientists\, micromobility companies\, active transportation advocates\, and local\, regional\, state\, and federal policymakers. \nThe Micromobility 2.0 Workshop was hosted at the James Florio Special Events Forum at the Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy at Rutgers University\, 33 Livingston Ave\, New Brunswick\, NJ. \nContinuing maintenance credits are available for AICP-certified planners who attended the workshop. Click here for more information. \nUp to three (3) PDH credits are available for professional engineers. \nThis workshop was funded through a grant provided by the National Science Foundation. \nFor more information\, email: micromobility@ejb.rutgers.edu \n\nWorkshop Agenda\nWelcome & Opening Remarks\nJames Florio Special Events Forum \n\nStuart Shapiro\, PhD – Professor and Dean – Edward J.

SUMMARY:Defending Democracy: The Fight for a Floor Beneath Which No Person Should Fall
DESCRIPTION:The Gov. James J. Florio Visiting Scholar in Public Policy Lecture\nIn partnership with the offices of Florio\, Perrucci\, Steinhardt\, & Fader LLC\, in 2015 the Bloustein School recognized Gov. Florio’s public service career through the endowment of a high-level visiting scholar. The annual Governor James J. Florio Distinguished Visiting Scholar of Public Policy will be a former senior government official or policy practitioner\, focusing on an issue that was central to his legislative and gubernatorial career. The themes of the lecture include public service\, foreign policy\, the environment\, transportation and mass transit\, education\, welfare reform\, health care\, and gun control. \nCongresswoman Bonnie Watson Coleman\nU.S. House of Representatives (D-NJ 12th District); House Appropriations Committee \nThe first Black woman to represent New Jersey in Congress\, Bonnie Watson Coleman’s work in the House centers on her belief that\, in the United States\, there should exist a floor below which we should never allow any child\, any family\, any person to fall. Knowing that millions struggle every day just to make ends meet from the first to the last of the month\, her legislative work seeks to bridge the gap for these Americans\, making sure that the richest nation in the world doesn’t allow millions to live below the poverty line; doesn’t allow vulnerable groups to suffer the fallout of environmental violations; doesn’t allow profit margins to define the standards or the motivations for incarceration; and doesn’t allow bias to push everyday needs like car insurance out of reach for working families. \nWatson Coleman’s work in Congress continues a family legacy of public service\, fighting for women\, economically and socially disadvantaged populations\, and other vulnerable groups in our society. Prior to her election as a Representative for New Jersey’s 12th Congressional District\, Watson Coleman served eight consecutive terms in the New Jersey General Assembly and shattered racial and gender barriers to become the first Black woman to serve as Majority Leader\, and as the Chair of the New Jersey Democratic State Committee. During her time as Majority Leader\, Watson Coleman convened a year- long series of public hearings on reforms to prisoner re-entry programs while shepherding legislation through the Assembly that the New York Times called “a model for the rest of the nation\,” on prisoner rehabilitation and release. \nFree and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Parking Fight!  The Stuart Meck Memorial Lecture in Land Use Law and Affordable Housing
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Henry Grabar\, Journalist and Loeb Fellow\, Harvard University Graduate School of Design \nIn the 2023 Stuart Meck Memorial Lecture in Land Use Law and Affordable Housing\, journalist Henry Grabar argues that the pursuit of a perfect parking space is the prime mover of local politics\, contemporary architecture\, and urban design. He presents his historical research on the “parking problem\,” reporting on parking’s role in community decision-making\, and explains the environmental disaster that is American parking policy. Finally\, he reviews the movement for parking reform\, from the pioneering work of Donald Shoup to contemporary policy changes and their results\, as activists try to repair the harms of a century- long experiment in planning for parking. \nHenry Grabar is a journalist who writes about cities. He’s a Loeb Fellow at Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design and a staff writer at Slate. His work has also appeared in 99 Percent Invisible\, the Atlantic\, the Guardian\, Harper’s\, the New York Times\, the Wall Street Journal\, and other publications. He has discussed these subjects on television and radio\, and before audiences at New America\, the National Press Foundation\, and various conferences and classrooms. His most recent book is Paved Paradise: How Parking Explains the World\, which was published in May\, 2023 by Penguin Press. \nRSVP at https://go.rutgers.edu/parkingfight
