The Street Project.
Asbury Park Complete Streets Coalition is excited to share this award winning documentary, The Street Project.
There will be a Q & A, and a drawing for a bike from Second Life Bikes, gifts from Asbury Park Cyclery, Booskerdoo and others!
Digging deep into the root causes of traffic violence, the filmmakers engage a diverse array of experts including street historian Peter Norton, city planner Jeff Speck, and urban design expert Mikael Colville-Andersen. These expert interviews are interwoven with the stories of real people working to make their communities safer.
Asbury Park Complete Streets Coalition is dedicated to its mission of transportation equity in Asbury Park including equitable access and safety for all users of Asbury Park streets.

Riders can use the Zagster Mobile App [available for iPhone and Android] or online at bike.zagster.com/asburypark.
