 ons Learned: From Tactical to Practical\nWEDNESDAY\, JUNE 2 AT 4:00PM\nThe
  pandemic spurred tremendous innovation in tactical approaches to expand t
 he capacity of our streets to more safely accommodate people and commerce.
  These experiments validated the demand for complete streets that provide 
 a better balance between roadway users. At the same time\, many of these p
 ilots highlighted real conflicts that need to be thought through more thor
 oughly if they are going to transition to permanent solutions. The session
  will provide advice for those looking to transition from tactical to prac
 tical implementation of complete streets.\n\nPanelists:\n\n 	Mike Lydon\,
