These folks, usually occupied with planning the massive growth and development of our campuses, took time to discuss making transportation sustainable.

We started with a meeting at the TSP- Transportation for a Livable City, conveniently located right by a BART and MUNI (both subway stations) hub. Over some coffee and pastries (Thanks guys!) we discussed the growing movement to make college campuses in urban settings embrace public transportation, or as we like to see it -mobility on a human scale- safety in bicycle routes, usability of transit corridors, and beauty -livability- of walkways.
