Reclaiming Streets for People

Janette Sadik-Khan, Principal at Bloomberg Associates, former Commissioner of the New York City Department of Transportation, and author of Streetfight: Handbook for an Urban Revolution, shares practical lessons from transforming streets in cities around the world. Drawing on her experience delivering rapid, people-first changes, she will explore how safer walking and biking infrastructure, better transit streets, and more flexible public spaces can improve safety and mobility. The session will outline low-cost pilots and data-driven design as tools to build public support and overcome resistance to change. Sadik-Khan will highlight how Albuquerque can adapt these strategies to its own streets and priorities. Attendees will leave with clear, actionable insights for creating safer and more vibrant streets that better serve people and communities. Reception to immediately follow lecture.
