🌉✨ Yesterday, I had the incredible opportunity to attend the 2024 Symposium on Bridging the Gap – Partnerships to Address Homelessness, hosted by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) right here in Austin, Texas. Transportation agencies from across the nation gathered to discuss impactful solutions. Across the US, people experiencing homelessness often seek shelter under bridge structures and along highway rights-of-way. This poses significant safety risks for both themselves and road travelers, increasing the chances of vehicle/pedestrian crashes. To address these challenges, FHWA and TxDOT have formed vital partnerships within the Austin area, aiming to provide a "bridge of hope" from public streets to stable housing for the unhoused population. They are now seeking private independent housing partners to support this crucial initiative. Together, we can create safer roads and better lives. 🏠💪 #HomelessnessAwareness #FHWA #TxDOT #BridgingTheGap #HousingForAll #AustinTexas #PartnershipsForChange #SafeRoadsSafeLives
