Rethinking Streets An Evidencebased Guide To 25 Complete Street Transformations Schlossberg Marc by Schlossberg Marc, Rowell John, Amos Dave, Sanford Kelly. B076DWTLYG instant download after payment.

For too long we’ve been building streets as though they have one function–to move cars quickly. The reality is that streets can to do more than just move cars. They can move people on foot, on bikes, on transit, without hurting vehicular throughput and safety. They can be more than a way to get somewhere else. Good streets are good places, too – public places where people meet, sit and socialize, conduct business, wander about, play, and more.

This practical and accessible book uses evidence from completed street projects from around the United States in order to help communities imagine alternative futures for their streets. The book does not show hypothetical street re-designs, but actual examples from typical communities to show how they did what they did and see what resulted from the change. Engineers, planners, policy makers, urban designers, professors, students, and general community members from over 25 countries have already downloaded and used this book. I hope you find it useful, too.
