Join us at The Little Theatre on November 19, 2015 for the first ever Rochester Street Films event.
Through short film clips and community discussion moderated by Rachel Barnhart (WROC-TV) we will explore “the future of transportation” in and around Rochester—in particular, walking, biking, & public transit.
We’ll see how cities around the world are implementing smart transportation design and policies to create better places to live, work and play. And we’ll also hear from local experts and everyday Rochesterians about the current and future state of transportation in Monroe County…
Films from Streetfilms.org 
and local footage by Rochester’s own Alex and Ander .
Guest panelists will include:
- Erik Frisch – City of Rochester, Transportation Specialist
- Miguel Velázquez – RTS, Chief Operating Officer
- Heidi Zimmer-Meyer – Rochester Downtown Development Corp.
- Karen Elam – United Way Rochester-Monroe Anti-Poverty Initiative
- Kerry Ivers – Irondequoit, Town Planner
- Elizabeth Murphy – Finger Lakes Health Systems Agency, Active Transportation Specialist
- Adam McFadden – Rochester City Council
- William McDonald – Medical Motor Service

- …And more!
Plus… live demonstrations by Maxwell Motorbikes and Sweet Beez with their bike-powered honey extractor!
