NACTO
@NACTO
100 North American cities & transit agencies exchanging transportation ideas, insights and practices.
"The new NACTO document even put a protected intersection on its cover — a reference, says director of policy and practice Stefanie Seskin, to this edition’s emphasis that cycling infrastructure goes beyond the bike lane." bloomberg.com/news/features/…
“The @betterbikeshare Roundtable affirmed the need to center lived experience. It also challenged us to think critically about the language we use—what we mean by ‘justice,’ ‘mobility,’ and ‘community’—and who gets left out when we don’t.” –Jalonda Hill nacto.org/latest/transpo…
Day 2 of @NACTO's #DesigningCities Conference started strong with a panel on regional partnerships. #DDOTDC Director Sharon Kershbaum, @wmata's CEO Randy Clarke & @BmoreCityDOT's Director Veronica McBeth shared how collaboration drives progress across our region.
Walkshops at @NACTO’s #DesigningCities conference took us straight to the streets to explore how #DDOTDC is reimagining public space—from stadium parking to art in the ROW and more! Dive into our projects to learn more here 👉🔗 bit.ly/45tRFNl.
Great walkshops at @NACTO! Got a close look at the @ride_circuit electric shuttles and the @BunchBikes cargo e-bike library from the @SWBID and @DCMID_SW. Also got insights into @DDOTDC’s parking and traffic strategy at Audi Field & Nats Park. #NACTO2025 #DesigningCities
Thank you to @nacto for having me speak with @wmata’s incredible Partners @ddot, @bmorecitydot, & @ladot moderator. This is a group who walks the walk and humbled to be part of an industry doing so much to impact people’s lives positively. Enjoy riding America’s Metro System!
Day 1 of #DesigningCities: Old friends, new faces, clarion calls to action, a reception inside of a repurposed rail car (!), and, of course, #PlannersPointing.
#NACTO2025 is generating excitement in DC, and our #DDOTDC team is proud to welcome transportation leaders! Hear from our Chief of Staff Matthew Marcou on planning insights for engineers. Follow us for updates! #DesigningCities
Signal phasing and timing are core tools for better intersection design. Along bikeways, signal plans should: > Optimize operations for people biking, walking, and taking transit. > Supplement signal operations with geometric features. Read more: nacto.org/latest/urban-b…
How do you design bikeway crossings at unsignalized intersections? - Evaluate for lane reductions - Apply roundabout concepts - Reduce speed and volume - Identify appropriate intersection control - Use crossbikes and crosswalks More: nacto.org/latest/urban-b…
🎉 Big congrats to our newest group of grantees! We’re excited to keep uplifting projects that engage with people often left out of bike share. 🙌🏾 Learn more about their incredible work: betterbikeshare.org/2025/05/02/mee… We’ll be sharing updates in the coming months—stay tuned!
