Walk, Bike, and Transit Audits
Transport Hartford organizes regular walk, bike, and transit audits. These audits are aimed at assessing the safety of a designated area for most vulnerable road users such as walkers, wheelchairs users, and cyclists.
Here is a Webinar Recording on how to conduct a walk audit and Presentation Slides. We follow the AARP toolkit as part of the organization’s strategy to promote livable communities. All our walk audits are available here.
Events
Transport Hartford organizes regular public events. Among them, our monthly multimodal meetings are opportunities to discuss policies, meet stakeholders, and socialize. We are co-organizers of Transit Equity Day which commemorates the legacy of Rosa Park. We also host regular public forums with officials, experts, community members, and advocates.
