Course Description:
This course explores the principles and practices of sustainable street design with a focus on enhancing the quality, functionality, and sustainability of urban street environments. Participants will examine the concept of "complete streets" that prioritize the needs and safety of all users, including pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists. Through case studies and research, students will gain insights into sustainable street design criteria, including socio-environmental considerations related to aesthetics, environment, liveability, and safety. The course will also delve into the determinants of pedestrian activities and their integration into urban street design. By examining the relationship between street design and sustainable mobility, participants will explore how pedestrian priority can contribute to creating more sustainable and inclusive urban spaces.
Learning Objectives:
1. Attendees will understand the concept of complete streets and its significance in promoting sustainable and inclusive urban environments.
2. Attendees will understand the built environment determinants of pedestrian activities and their role in shaping urban street design.
3. Attendees will learn about the impact of pedestrian priority in street design on sustainable mobility, including improvements in walkability, active transportation, and reduced reliance on private vehicles.
