On Wednesday, February 18, Transit for Livable Communities hosted the webinar “PEDSAFE/BIKESAFE,” which featured a presentation by Charley Zegeer and Libby Thomas from the University of North Carolina Highway Safety Research Center. They gave an overview of The PEDSAFE and BIKESAFE programs, which are safety resources that provide interactive pedestrian and bicycle crash analysis tools that allow the user to assign specific crash types using crash data. This service helps practitioners identify effective bicycle and pedestrian safety strategies through measures such as engineering, education, and enforcement.
PEDSAFE/BIKESAFE was developed for the U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration. This system is hosted on the websites of the Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center.
Materials from the presentation are available at the APBP website.

About Bike Walk Twin Cities
- Bike Walk Twin Cities
- Bike Walk Twin Cities is an initiative designed to make it easier for you to get where you want to go without using your car. Armed with a $21.5 million federal grant, we are building new bike lanes, safer crosswalks, and other improvements to make it easier to walk and bike in Minneapolis and its neighboring communities. We're even making it easy once you get to your destination: Bike Walk Twin Cities invests in accessible, abundant, and smartly located bike parking, better lighting along biking and walking routes, and more pleasant streetscapes (with things like public art, greenery, and benches).
