520 | |a Our dependence on cars is damaging our health - and the planet's. Movement asks radical questions about how we approach the biggest urban problem, reflecting on the apparent successes of Dutch cities. Making our communities safer, cleaner, and greener starts with asking the fundamental question- who do our streets belong to? Although there have been experiments in decreasing traffic in city centres, and an increase in bike-friendly infrastructure, there is still a long way to go. In this enlightening and provocative book, Thalia Verkade and Marco te Brommelstroet confront their own underlying beliefs and challenge us to rethink our ideas about transport to put people at the centre of urban design. | ||
