We've partnered with a new street analysis tool Streetmeter to help people plan better streets. And there's a webinar this week! April 23 at 10am Eastern, see this link for the deets
Are you a traffic or urban planner looking to drive sustainable urban transformation? Join us for a dynamic and insightful webinar on April 23, from 16:00 to 17:00 CEST, where we will explore innovative tools and strategies to reshape car-dominated streets into greener, more human-centered spaces. This event is tailored for professionals like you—whether you're dealing with the challenges of car-centric urban planning or are focused on creating walkable, bikeable, and vibrant environments. You will gain practical insights into Streetmeeter, a tool developed to help planners and decision-makers make compelling, data-driven arguments for sustainable street transformations. About the Webinar The webinar will introduce Streetmeeter, a tool developed during a Future Mobility innovation project. Streetmeeter is a web app designed to support sustainable street design in Sweden and North America. This tool, created through a collaborative project involving leading urban design firms Spacescape (Sweden), RISE, Streetplans (United States), and OAWA On A Wednesday Afternoon AB, helps planners rethink car-oriented streets and create more livable urban spaces. The tool is currently being tested in ongoing projects in Swedish and American municipalities, with feedback from planners incorporated into its development process.In addition to Streetmeeter, you’ll discover how the Streetmix platform enables planners to visualize street redesigns and engage stakeholders in shaping more sustainable urban spaces.Mike Lydon, from Streetplans, will deliver a lecture on developing streets that are both sustainable and people-friendly. He will cover the key factors involved in transforming streetscapes, share stories of successful past projects, and explain the calculations behind effective street designs.

To start the year, let’s debunk a common myth: the Dutch do not have cycling infrastructure everywhere. That’s because it isn’t always needed. New post and video!
The Dutch recommend bike paths be smooth, clear of obstructions, and a minimum of 230cm (7.5') for 1-way & 400cm (13') for 2-way paths.
Because conflicts inevitably happen on narrower paths.
And because we love to travel together with other people. 🚲❤️
