Making a community together… to design a street – Street Films documents London’s Do-It-Yourself Approach to Safer Streets
(Source: Street Films)
Recently, our awesome folks at Streetfilms got a walk through of a successful DIY project — on Clapton Terrace in London. Called “DIY Streets,” a total of 11 communities across England and Wales benefited through this program, which brings neighbors together to help them redesign their streets in a way that puts people, safety, and streetlife first. The non-profit Sustrans is pioneering this community-based method to reclaim streets from high-speed traffic and make neighborhoods safer and more sociable places.
