Here is a description of the panel:

Cities across America are installing new bike lanes, initiating bike share programs and developing complete streets policies to make streets safer for cyclists as well as other non-drivers. What does this attention to bicycling mean for cyclists, motorist and pedestrians? A panel of city officials, community members, advocates and researchers will lend their interpretation of the impact of cycling in Philadelphia. Panelists include Andrew Stober from the Mayor's Office of Transportation and Utilities; Alex Doty from the Bicycle Coalition; John Chin from the Chinatown Development Corporation and advocates from Penn Design and University of the Arts' Masters in Industrial Design program.
