Local urban high streets have frequently suffered from neglect in
comparison to town centres and out-of-town retail. Yet they have
the potential to meet contemporary policy aspirations with regard
to sustainability, social inclusion and place making. Rediscovering
mixed-use streets is the first in-depth investigation of local
mixed-use high streets. Drawing on case-studies in three different
locations in England, the report provides a wealth of data and
findings produced from a variety of sources, both quantitative and
qualitative. In particular, the report offers a comprehensive view
of local high streets, from the point of view of transport, local
residents, visitors, businesses and practitioners; provides a
series of suggestions for their improvement and demonstrates how
local high streets belong to future sustainable communities.
Providing a significant contribution to current interest in
mobility, urban design and social inclusion, the findings have
particular relevance for 'Sustainable Communities', 'Cleaner,
Safer, Greener', and 'Place Matters' policies. The study will be of
interest to policy makers and practitioners involved in the making
and managing of streets and those with an interest in regeneration.
