Shared Streets of Pittsburgh

What do employer-provided shower stalls have to do with bikes? A lot, evidently. Ngani Ndimbie from Bike Pittsburgh talks to Heinz Radio about the non-profit’s mission to transform city streets and communities into vibrant, healthy places that are safe and accessible for everyone to cycle and walk. In this interview, we learn how bike infrastructure can boost business for local retailers, and invite suburban commuters to downtown. Tune in to hear how Pittsburgh is embracing and cultivating a strong bike culture amidst a vehicle-dominated road infrastructure, including future plans for a city bike-share program.

Pittsburgh and the ADA

This summer marked the 25th anniversary of the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). This landmark civil rights case prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability in employment, public services, public accommodations, and telecommunications. How has this legislation expanded the degree to which people with disabilities are included in workplace and community life? What impressions has it left on local architecture and urban planning? The City of Pittsburgh’s ADA Coordinator, Richard Meritzer, discusses this progress and a range of public programs available to people with disabilities in our community.
