Webinar
Streets are not only conduits for mobility and utilities, but they also form a huge chunk of our public space inventory. Designing streets as complete streets that cater to a myriad of different user groups and activities ensures a livable city that is sustainable. In this webinar, ITDP India will look at why we need complete streets, as well as their principles and benefits. Aswathy Dilip will introduce the Complete Streets Toolkit and highlight all the pieces of the puzzle that need to come together to create better streets that result in better cities.
