What happens when the curb becomes too appealing? What can we do about it? The curb is loved by more than just cars and trucks nowadays. Bikes, scooters, rideshare, and even food trucks want a piece of it—and they're willing to fight each other for it. Jim Barbaresso, HNTB's Senior VP and National Practice Leader for Intelligent Transportation Systems, shares with us this week what's happening to the curb now, what will happen to the curb in the future, and how we can shape curb policy to ensure the most efficient and fair use of it.
