In this episode, I explore "car-free" Culdesac in Tempe, AZ, with its co-founder and CEO, Ryan Johnson. Come along for the ride and check out this community that is setting a new standard in neighborhood design that breaks the status quo of car dependency and living up to its tagline of "Cities For People, Not Cars."

We discuss the story behind Ryan's dream to build communities that free people from car dependence, how the relaxation of parking requirements for residents makes this all possible, and a new protected bike lane on Smith Rd connecting residents to Tempe Marketplace and the Rio Salado Pathway.

Background:
Hi Everyone! My name is John Simmerman, and I’m a health promotion and public health professional with over 30 years of experience. Over the years, my area of concentration has evolved into a specialization in how the built environment influences human behavior related to active living and especially active mobility.

Since 2010,  I've been exploring, documenting, and profiling established, emerging, and aspiring Active Towns wherever they might be while striving to produce high-quality multimedia content to help inspire the creation of more safe and inviting, environments that promote a "Culture of Activity" for "All Ages & Abilities."

The Active Towns Channel features my original video content and reflections, including a selection of podcast episodes and short films profiling the positive and inspiring efforts happening around the world as I am able to experience and document them.

Thanks once again for tuning in! I hope you find this content helpful and insightful.
