How can street closures be used to address economic, community, transportation, and health policy goals? Johann Weber, a 4th year PhD student in the School of Public Policy, conducted a case comparison of recurring street closure programs (sometimes called "Open Streets") to better understand their organization, funding, and features. His analysis provides valuable insight into the critical considerations surrounding developing such programs, as well as recommendations for the use of such programs to accomplish economic development, community development, transportation, and public health goals.
