Overview
Description:
This training will help professionals better understand what is a holistic approach to implementing safety countermeasures along complete streets. The course will review common countermeasures, the appropriate contexts where countermeasures can be most effective, and give an overview of current safety manuals and research. How to fund a safety project will also be discussed.
Attendees will receive a link to register via Zoom after registering here. Please register on Zoom to receive the link for this meeting.
Note: These 300 training series are shorter, topic focused discussions, meant as additional Complete Streets resources. Alone, this training does not fulfill the Complete Streets training obligation for eligibility in the Complete Streets Program.
COVID policy update
We are required to consider the safety of our attendees during these virtual classroom trainings. As such, the following policy has been implemented for the safety of all of our participants.
Please remember:
If any participants will be sharing a screen for the coming class, inform the training coordinator, Brenda Codella at bcodella@umass.edu, ahead of time. - UMTC can send circular discs to towns/departments to mark distances, mail masks and trial size hand sanitizers if needed.
There will be a Safety Briefing at the beginning of the training session to announce these protocols, to do our part in stopping the spread of COVID-19.
If participants are in the same room:
Participants must be 6’ apart and wearing masks. (UMTC team members have been told to stop a class if they see that these requirements are not being followed)
Virtual meeting video must be turned on when possible to increase interaction, confirm attendance, and encourage social distancing
