New research shows that that car crashes involving pedestrians and cyclists are more frequent in some of Rochester’s most economically-challenged neighborhoods. What it will take to make streets safer?
We’re joined by experts and local residents who share their ideas. In studio:

- Renée Stetzer, vice president for community outreach and chair of the Pedestrian Workgroup at Reconnect Rochester
- Lydia Rivera, vice president of the Edgerton Neighborhood Association
