What is the role of 30-min driving in the 15-min city?
New function in Google Maps. Allows you to see the area covered in a 15-minute walk, assigning a point of origin. You can also select a time of 30 minutes and a car as a mode of transport. Interesting input. (HT & PIC @je_aristizabal)

Thanks for this great work! All governments around the globe should learn from this approach to enable better public access to morphology data.

Pls consider streaming or recording the symposium. Proximity planning or the X-min City are clearly not restricted to Europe and the US. Make it a global debate!
Join @BerkeleyITS @ced_berkeley Departamento de Urbanística y Territorio at the @La_UPM @TU_Muenchen for an international symposium: Proximity planning: A local strategy for global problems, or a global strategy for local problems? March 10 @UCBerkeley

A good proposal but not progressive enough. I would remove these two lanes for private vehicles; instead, turning them into shared paths mainly for pedestrians, cyclists, and emergency vehicles.

@RJSCity @nlamontagne This seems to be a promising plan for transforming and strengthening the urban/retail core of Calgary.
Engagement is open on the Stephen Avenue conceptual streetscape master plan. There are two design approaches for the 4 St SW to 1 St SE section. 11 St to 4 St SW includes upgraded protected bike lanes. Get that feedback in! #yycwalk #yycbike #yycplan

This exactly demonstrates that EVs are not the answer to climate changes. How could Hummers roaring on the road - using any types of energy - create sustainable, people-centred, and safe urban spaces?
Biden is giving free publicity to the Hummer EV, a 4.5-ton behemoth so inefficient that it pollutes more per mile than a *gas-powered* sedan. Source:

The transformation towards a pedestrian/cyclist-friendly city in Paris is amazing. In future when teaching Parisan urban planning wisdom, we have better precedents than Baron Haussmann, the emperor behind him, and boulevards and avenues that are condusive to cars and power.
Remember, Paris wasn’t “always this way.” It wasn’t even this way in late 2019 when I was there last. Just a few years ago, #Paris was choking in car traffic. This is new. This is leadership. Cities are a result of choices. Video via @Khayat_Fouad

Outdated spatial arrangement, obsolete public/private interface and public space, inward-oriented mall environment, the rise of online retailing, the Covid-19 pandemic ... U name it. Baltimore's Inner Harbour stands for the struggling urban retail landscape today.
