Book Club

Interested in books related to active transportation, especially those focused on mobility justice? Join the Active Transportation Book Club!  

The Active Transportation Book Club formed in 2021 as part of the TRB Bicycle Transportation Committee and broke free in 2025. We meet monthly. How does this book club fit in the AT+DWG mission? One focus of AT+DWG from our goals is active transportation, another is equity. This book club discusses important equity issues in transportation, that are relevant to everything we do, including data.

Books we've read:

• When Driving is not an Option, Anna Letitia Zivarts

• Killed by a Traffic Engineer, Wes Marshall

• Arrested Mobility, Charles T. Brown

• The Color of Law, Richard Rothstein

• Bike Lanes Are White Lanes, Melody L. Hoffman

• Mobility Justice, Mimi Sheller

• Bicycle/Race, Adonia E. Lugo
