We take it for granted that the streets outside out homes are
designed for movement from A to B, nothing more. But what happens
if we radically rethink how we use these public spaces? Could we
change our lives for the better? Our dependence on cars is damaging
our health - and the planet's. The Dutch seem to have the right
idea, with thousands of bike highways, but even then, what happens
to pedestrians or people who want to cycle at a more leisurely
pace? What about children playing outside their homes? Or wildlife,
which enriches our local areas? Why do we prioritise traffic above
all else? Making our communities safer, cleaner, and greener starts
with asking the fundamental questions: who do our streets belong
to, what do we use them for, and who gets to decide? Join
journalist Thalia Verkade and urban mobility expert Marco te
Broemmelstroet as they confront their own underlying beliefs and
challenge us to rethink our way of life to put people at the centre
of urban design. But be warned: you will never look at the street
outside your front door in the same way again.
