The Silkin Way- Old railway now footpath/#cycleway named after John Silkin Labour Politician. 1966 “In the long run, the #newtowns will be judged by the kind of citizens they produce, by whether they create this spirit of #friendship, #neighbourliness and #comradeship. That will be the real test, and that will be my objective so long as I have any responsibility for these new towns.”

I am seeing a lot of work is being done (or is gathering momentum) for car-free zones in the cities. The next couple of years are huge for civic design and civic tech practitioners. #civictech #civicdesign #urbandesign #townplanning #proptech

Why city planning needs diverse perspectives.
Touring possible commuter cycling routes.
What I saw - Smooth pavement. Separate from traffic. Shade. Not too busy. Perfect.
What my female partner saw - Blind corners. No lighting. No escape routes. Too few users. Wouldn’t use this route.
