Canadian Society of Landscape Architects Annual Conference
 
Nancy Smith Lea, Active Transportation Director for the Clean Air Partnership, and    Program Director for the Toronto Coalition for Active Transportation, a project of the Clean Air Partnership, was invited to speak in the session "Removing Highways, Building Cities" alongside renowned architects John Amodeo and Ken Greenberg. Nancy spoke about reducing barriers to active transportation such as those posed by Toronto's Gardiner Expressway. Her talk provided first-hand experiences faced by cyclists and pedestrians, including a video that documents challenges in crossing Highway 401 from the handlebars of a bicycle. Solutions for active transportation around highways being implemented in other cities were also shown.
