sea.citi is hosting a virtual event “Beyond the Build - Cutting the Commute Carbon Footprint” on June 8, 2021 from 8:00PM-9:00PM EST.
Join sea.citi and OneEastside to learn more about Covid's impact on regional transportation and the opportunity to build back sustainably.
About this Event:
Covid-related disruptions to transportation are complex and can’t be overestimated. Some of these disruptions provided opportunities to rethink how we get around — there’s a national bicycle shortage as demand soared; many cities closed streets to non-essential vehicles to allow more ways for residents to safely get outside; WFH and hybrid work will undoubtedly change the flow of traffic and people throughout the region.
As we begin to see a way out of restrictions, how does our region balance the pandemic’s impact on transportation with long-term environmental sustainability goals?
Join local experts to learn more about how we’ll get around post-pandemic and the promise of a more sustainable transportation future.
