Chinatown Boston Pedestrian Safety Campaign Video

Chinatown Boston Pedestrian Safety Campaign Video

In summer 2016, WalkBoston worked with students from AsianCDC’s A-VOYCE program on a walk audit and to make observations, gather data, and collect stories from people about dangerous walking conditions in Chinatown. The students created a video and presented their findings to the Boston Transportation Department. This youth-led campaign resulted in tangible, structural improvements such as doubling the walk light timing to better accommodate elders, children and individuals with physical disabilities.
