Know a street that changed?

Tell us about a place that was made greener, calmer, safer or less car-dependent. Every issue starts with a real place, and many of the best ones come from people who walk it every day.

1 · The place

Street, square or project name

City

Country

Year it opened

What kind of place

2 · What changed

What was it like before, and what is it like now?

A few sentences is plenty. Lanes removed, trees planted, how it feels to be there.

Do you know of any measured results? (optional)

Traffic counts, crashes, footfall, shop takings, trees, heat, noise, cost. A link to a report is perfect.

Links (optional)

City pages, the designer's project page, news coverage. One per line.

What makes a strong story

Finished in the last three years, or has new results
A clear before and after you could photograph
At least one measured result or a public budget
Anywhere in the world, any size: streets, squares, school streets, riverfronts, car parks turned into parks

What happens next

We check every fact against an official source, ask the city or designers for photos, and credit everyone involved. Not every story becomes an issue, but every one goes into our research list.

Remade

Showcasing the best of good urban planning and design
