Presentations will consider the pros and cons of increasing the capacity of limited access highway networks by building new roads and/or widening/extending them – potentially combined with investments in transportation system management (TSM), transportation demand management (TDM), intelligent transportation systems (ITS), public transit and/or connected vehicle (CV) infrastructure.

Due to social justice, economic and environmental concerns, some expressways that were built through established urban areas in the 1950s and 1960s are now being removed to free up space for development and people. This webinar will discuss several examples where highways were downgraded to arterial status, buried underground or not replaced.
