SUMMARY:How to Fix Route 9: Annual Transportation Forum
DESCRIPTION:We drive it. We shop along it. We sit at its lights and mutter. But when was the last time anyone asked what Route 9 could be?That question will be at the center of the Chamber's annual Transportation Forum.This aging\, highway-like corridor cuts through three of our communities   Brookline\, Newton and Wellesley   serving as both a major transportation artery and a commercial destination. Could it move traffic better? Be safer to cross? Become a place people want to go\, not just a way to get somewhere else?We'll ask our featured panel for ideas ranging from pragmatic to aspirational\, and maybe a little whimsical. Think better traffic flow\, rethought intersections\, expanded multimodal access\, support for businesses and new development opportunities.Then a second\, shorter panel of municipal transportation planners from Brookline\, Newton and Wellesley will react and offer their own take on what's possible. And we'll want to hear your ideas too!Featured panel:Chris Dempsey\, co-founder\, Speck DempseySrdj Nedeljkovic\, transportation writer and advocateLizzy Weyant\, Executive Director\, Metropolitan Area Planning Council (MAPC)
