Contested Streets
The Texas Theatre Dallas, TX
Bike Friendly Oak Cliff and the Fort Worth Avenue Development Group present "Contested Streets", hosted by Council Member Angela Hunt. The film explores the rich diversity of American street life before the introduction of automobiles and shows how US cities can follow the example of other modern international cities that have reclaimed their streets as vibrant public spaces. Interviews and footage shot in cities around the world showcase how limiting automobile use in recent years has improved air quality, minimized noise pollution and enriched commercial, recreational and community interaction. London's congestion pricing scheme, Paris' BRT (bus rapid transit) and Copenhagen's bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure are all examined in depth.
