DOWNTOWN BROOKLYN — A PANEL ON ENVISIONING “Low Traffic Neighborhoods,” co-hosted by the Brooklyn Borough President’s Office and Open Plans, will take place from 6-8 p.m. on Tuesday, March 3, at the Brooklyn Borough Hall Courtroom, 209 Joralemon St.
Advocates say LTNs offer a neighborhood-wide approach to reducing unnecessary cut-through traffic to make streets safer, healthier and more community-oriented. Panelists include Brit Byrd, senior planner at the Office of the Borough President; Christ Roberti, parent advocate from Public School 110; David Vega-Barachowitz from WXY Studio; and Talya Schwartz, senior strategist at Open Plans.
Attendees will learn ways to get involved, from identifying priority areas to organizing locally and working with city agencies. To RSVP, visit openplans.org.
