Winnipeg's Business Improvement Zones are hosting a downtown Winnipeg safety summit today.

The invitation-only event features speakers from Winnipeg and other cities, including Calgary and Minneapolis, that are trying to make their downtowns more safe, welcoming and inclusive, a news release from the Downtown Winnipeg BIZ said.

Mayor Brian Bowman will provide opening remarks to kickstart the day-long summit being held at the RBC Convention Centre.

Its goal is to lay out constructive recommendations and identify a series of short-term safety projects that can be implemented immediately, the release said.
