APBP Lifetime Achievement Awards

The Association of Pedestrian and Bicycle Professionals Lifetime Achievement Award:

"The Lifetime Achievement Award recognizes an individual who has made a substantial commitment to the profession during his or her lifetime and who has shown excellence in the field of bicycle and pedestrian planning, design, advocacy, and/or education. The award distinguishes those whose vision and determination have made their communities better places to bicycle and walk and who inspire the rest of us. This award is open to both APBP members and non-members who have contributed to our profession. A person may be nominated posthumously, after retirement, or while still working in the field."

Over half of the winners have appeared on "Perils For Pedestrians".  (To go directly to an interview on any of the YouTube videos, click on the timecode in the individual video description on YouTube.)
