2022 Summit Program Content
The 2022 NC BikeWalk Transportation Summit will bring together hundreds of stakeholders interested in advancing safe roads and healthier, more equitable communities for all road users in North Carolina.
Sessions are designed to provide information and foster collaboration. Summit participants will hear from national, statewide, and local leaders on how to make transportation safer and more equitable for all users, especially pedestrians and people who use bikes.
The theme of this year’s Summit is “Safety: The Heart of Active Mobility" and our emerging program reflects the spirit of this theme.
