Headline Description

2008 San Francisco Pedestrian Safety Summit

After several months of intense planning, this event went off successfully on Tuesday, April 8th. Throughout the day, 21 speakers and five moderators addressed a crowd that included over 100 registered guests participants.  In addition to local advocates and outside experts from Portland, Sacramento, Tampa and Oakland, the speakers and moderators were drawn from the SFMTA, Planning Department, Public Health, SFPD, District Attorney and Mayor’s Office, and Board of Supervisors. 

The opening speaker was Peter Jacobsen, an engineer and author who presented his research demonstrating that San Francisco has a low pedestrian collision rate given the high volume of pedestrians in our City. Following Mr. Jacobsen was a presentation by Raymon Smith, the president of the City’s Pedestrian Safety Advisory Committee, providing examples of community priorities. Next were 4 panels on Crash Reduction Measures, Enforcement’s Role in Pedestrian Safety, Education & Community Involvement, and Streetscape Design for Pedestrian Safety. Lively discussion rounded out each panel. We closed the day with a discussion of the day’s proceedings, lessons learned, and a vision for the future.
