NEW: When it comes to building a safe, comfortable biking city for EVERYONE, quality bike infrastructure matters MORE than quantity! Please read+share my @FastCompany⁩ article on #Vancouver’s “Triple A” infrastructure approach for ALL ages & abilities. fastcompany.com/90361034/if-…

If only experienced cyclists feel safe in a bike lane, then is it a bike lane at all?

Thinking about bike infrastructure as usable by cyclists of all ages and abilities changes how you design a city. In Vancouver, the city is trying to shift as quickly as possible to these "AAA" bike...

Vienna wants to stay ahead of other major cities in terms of housing affordability. That’s why it recently updated its building code to reduce property speculation.

Good example of transforming a space-wasting, one-storey supermarket into a mixed-use, mid-rise building in Vienna! A great way to add density in the city!

Wichtige Strategie, die wir seit Jahren verfolgen: Platzverschwendung durch ebenerdige Einkaufs-Schachteln beenden. Stattdessen: Stadt bauen, wie in Europa seit Jahrhunderten üblich: Ebenerdig einkaufen, drüber Wohnen und Arbeiten. Hier: Wien, Meidling vorher/nachhe

This summer is projected to be the 3rd hottest in recorded temperature history (in Austria). Which street layout do you prefer for the climate future in our cities: free car parking VS liveable tree canopy? #climatechange #adaptation #publicspace #treesVScars #urbanism #SmartCity

Amazing to see how Vancouver leads the way in building cycling infrastructure for all ages and abilities! Investing in (separated) infrastructure is the only way to substantially increase the number of bike trips in a city!

10 yrs ago we started with our first protected bike lane. In July, we broke our records for people biking in #Vancouver (midweek avg): - 7,600/day on Burrard Bridge - 8,200/day at Science World We’ve had a summer best over 9,000 so next stop is 10k/day! vancouver.ca/news-calendar/j…

This is what a great street for pedestrians and cyclists looks like! Vienna’s Lange Gasse is another great example of the transformational power of shared spaces!

Excellent street design from #Vancouver! Great example of how to design a street for people of all ages and abilities!

3 yrs ago we shared a vision for a new fully protected intersection at Quebec & 1st Ave. From an early concept to a final design, people of all ages & abilities can now enjoy the final result here in #Vancouver.
