Join SPUR’s Transportation Policy Director, Laura Tolkoff, in conversation with Oakland's Director of Transportation, Josh Rowan, about building safer streets across the city.
Since stepping into his role in 2024, Rowan has made safety a top priority. “Safety is our business. Everyone should be able to move freely and safely throughout Oakland using their desired mode of transportation, no matter where they live,” he says.
Come hear how his team is advancing this vision, what progress has been made so far, and what’s next in their efforts to create a safer, more accessible transportation network for all Oaklanders.
This program will take place in the newly opened space, Local Economy. The venue is owned and operated by Sarah Rich and Alexis Madrigal — writers and long-time Oakland residents.
