“What journeys are really necessary? How do we distinguish?” Great question, but panel is not super clear on this, unsurprisingly! #PeopleFriendlyPlaces
Ooh challenging @LDN_LS question re Exhibition Road - “when will it be fully pedestrianised? The ‘shared space’ approach never really worked, & now RBKC (ofc) seem to be planning to send more motor traffic down this route??” #PeopleFriendlyPlaces
@SustransLondon have a new Healthy Streets Officer programme - embedding active travel behaviour change resource in local authorities across London! Big scope to help support the new Central London Walking Network @LDN_LS @UDGUrbanUpdate #PeopleFriendlyPlaces
“Car ownership perpetuates car use. Once you own a car, you use it. And car ownership is hardly falling - it’s gone down by just 3% in London over the past ten years” Joe Wills @centreforlondon #PeopleFriendlyPlaces @LDN_LS
Joe Wills from @centreforlondon on managing ‘kerbside’ demand from non pedestrians - freight, parking, public transport, and now EV charging #PeopleFriendlyPlaces
“The foot tunnel from South Ken to the museums was the first of its kind to be built underneath roads - built to separate pedestrians from road traffic, which at that time was horse drawn carriages” #PeopleFriendlyPlaces
“Just changing your walking route to use quieter roads can half your exposure to air pollution.” #PeopleFriendlyPlaces @TheNorthbankBID @LDN_LS @UDGUrbanUpdate
“The Low Line project is partly about creating a mental map - helping people realise you can walk this route. There’s signage throughout so you know you’re on track, linking destinations. We’ve got ‘good growth’ money from @MayorofLondon to spend now too” #PeopleFriendlyPlaces
@BrendaPuech “People seem to be very resigned to car dominance. They rarely complain about long waits at crossing etc. They’re anti pollution but not anti car. How do we give pedestrians a voice - a political voice, representation?” #peoplefriendlyplaces @LDN_LS @UDGUrbanUpdate
“The hippocampus has ‘place cells’ - it’s a map of space inside our brains. But it also plays a key role in imagination!” #PeopleFriendlyPlaces
@johnstreetdales “since 2004 @TfL has produced eight different reports on ‘encouraging’ walking. But that might be the problem - creating a walkable city needs more than the occasional pat on the head” #PeopleFriendlyPlaces @LDN_LS @UDGUrbanUpdate
Oliver Sells from @cityoflondon #PeopleFriendlyPlaces “Everything you do will be controversial. Special interest groups will try to stop you. But afterwards people will come up to you and say ‘why didn’t you do this sooner?’ It’s quite frustrating really” @LDN_LS @UDGUrbanUpdate
