Cities across the world are instituting the road diet: a way to make roads safer and friendlier to those walking or biking by reducing the number of auto travel lanes. Several South Bay cities are following suit and using this tool to improve neighborhoods for a relatively low cost. Hear what is happening locally and about the effects city leaders anticipate seeing.
