Streetfight: On April 27 Janette Sadik-Kahn talks urban revolution

CfSC is proud to be joining forces with Ecology Ottawa and a number of other partners to present an evening with Janette Sadik-Kahn, former Transportation Commissioner of New York City and author of Streetfight: Handbook for an Urban Revolution.

Here is a 3 minute clip of the bike tour that BikeOttawa organised for Janette Sadik-Khan. As we only had an hour, we couldn’t venture out too far, so we stuck to a loop around the Ottawa river downtown. We showed some new bike infrastructure and we discussed some issues that have not been solved.

Based on her experience leading innovative urban design projects in NYC, Sadik-Kahn will share tips for making Ottawa’s streets safer and more livable. 

When: April 27th, reception at 6pm (with cash bar and books for sale), presentation runs from 7-8:30pm, book signing until 9pm.

Where: Aberdeen Pavilion, Lansdowne Park, 450 Queen Elizabeth Dr, Ottawa, ON K1S 5J3.

RSVP: Tickets are free but you must register using the form on this page. You’ll also have the option to share on Facebook that you’re going, as a way to tell your friends about this interesting event.

CfSC will have a booth at the event– come say hello to us! We look forward to seeing you there.
