6PM start!
Access to transportation is a key tenant of the League position on meeting basic human needs. DuPage County is car-centric, so if you don’t have a car, how do you go to work, shop, etc?
This panel brings together regional leaders to examine the barriers facing those who are carless – seniors, people with disabilities, and residents seeking affordable or sustainable ways to get around DuPage County. The panel will feature Mary Ozog, County Board Member and Chair of the Transportation Committee, Dave Simmons from Ride Illinois, and other leaders in transportation.
There will be mini expo with sustainable, active transportation and local bicycle-focused organizations with representatives on hand to meet with attendees. Confirmed are Go Green Glen Ellyn, Friends of EBDRT, Bike Glen Ellyn and Retro Glow Cycles.
IF YOU ATTEND THIS EVENT AND DON’T USE A CAR TO GET THERE, YOU WILL BE ENTERED TO WIN A RAFFLE GIFT!
Please note this is scheduled for 6pm to allow those who walk or bike to do so in the daylight.
