WEC 2019 - The why for walking transformations in our cities
Walking can be the fastest and most economical way to get around a city, and can have enormous benefits on health. To integrate walking, cities must focus on safety, convenience, culture and comfort for pedestrians. This is relatively straightforward in engineering terms, but can be challenging when there’s disparate stakeholder objectives and conflicting design criteria when planning city-building projects. Meet Sarah Zhang, Associate Transport Planner in this video who will share how pedestrian outcomes, comfort and accessibility can be validated in the design process and resulting in successful design at the World Engineering Conference 2019.
