Shared space urban design
Shared space urban design is a way of designing streets and public areas to promote cooperation between pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers without traditional traffic signals or signage. It reduces signs, markings, and barriers, encouraging all users to be more aware of each other and move naturally. The goal is to create safer, more attractive, and more lively environments where people can interact comfortably. This approach relies on designing spaces that foster mutual respect and careful behavior, resulting in a more inviting and functional urban area without the need for strict controls.
