A Public Conversation with Dr. Shoup

Whenever the conversation about parking in Tacoma comes up, one of the names often dropped into the discussion is that of Professor Donald Shoup. As Erik Bjornson pointed out a few weeks ago, Dr. Shoup is coming to town to speak at a conference. Now, the City of Tacoma and the Chamber invite you to a public conversation with the professor.

The City of Tacoma and the Tacoma-Pierce County Chamber invite you to a free public conversation with renowned parking expert and UCLA professor Dr. Donald Shoup.

Dr. Shoup has done extensive research on parking as a key link between transportation and land use, with important consequences for cities, the economy, and the environment. With this expertise, Shoup will address parking and mobility in downtown Tacoma.

Dr. Shoup will also be giving the keynote address at the PIPTA (Pacific Intermountain Parking & Transportation Association) annual conference and trade show being held in Tacoma July 26-28.

Do you want to learn more about mobility in Tacoma? Do you want to geek out on some planning theories? If so, join the conversation.
