The 2022 Missouri Active Transportation Summit is Friday, August 12th, 2022 a hybrid conference this year - in person in Jefferson City & also broadcast via Zoom! 

Would you like to tell the story of your bicycle, pedestrian, active transportation, active tourism, outdoor recreation, or trails program, project, or success? Or present on any topic related to bicycling, walking, trails, or active transportation/active tourism in Missouri?

The Summit Session proposals are due by midnight, Thursday, July 14th. We will announce Summit presenters and sessions soon after that. 

Presentation requirements and suggestions

We are particularly interested in sessions that include panel presentations or otherwise provide a variety of viewpoints on a particular topic or issue.

We are particularly interested in sessions that speak to one or more of our identified Summit themes:

  • Trail Towns: Preparing your community invite trail and non-motorized tourism and to maximize the benefit of Katy Trail, Rock Island Trail, or other trail tourism and economic development
  • Complete Streets & Liveable Streets in Missouri: Building support for, passing, and implementing your Complete Streets policy
  • Tourism and the economic impact of bicycling, walking, and trails: What is the economic importance of bicycling, walking, and trails to your community, and what can you do to maximize the economic impact to your community and to Missouri?
  • Coming back after COVID-19: How is your community, region, agency, or organization affected by COVID-19 and its aftermath? How has the situation changed from pre-pandemic times?
  • Health and Safety impacts of bicycling, walking, and trails
  • Making bicycling, walking, and trails succeed in rural, suburban, and urban settings, and small, medium, and large communities across Missouri
  • Generally, any topic related to trails, bicycling, walking, active transportation, active tourism, and related areas

Suggested Session Length: Up to 40-50 minutes but shorter presentations are welcome and encouraged!

Sessions are 40-50 minutes long and should include time for audience Q&A or other audience interaction.

If you have a shorter presentation in mind, please submit it! We can--and often do--combine two more more related shorter presentations into one session.
