‘The new town of Limerick is, unquestionably, superior to anything out
of Dublin. It’s principal street, although less picturesque than the chief
streets of Cork, would generally be reckoned a finer street.’
1834, Henry Inglis

what has transport got to do with it?
![Page 16: Towards a Vibrant Historic Centre€¦ · ― Charles Montgomery, Happy City: Transforming Our Lives Through Urban Design Through-traffic & One-way systems were introduced in the](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011916/5fe1c33e15424677d6783eec/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
“Cities that care about livability have got to start paying attention to the
psychological effect that traffic has on the experience of public space.”
― Charles Montgomery, Happy City: Transforming Our Lives Through Urban Design
![Page 17: Towards a Vibrant Historic Centre€¦ · ― Charles Montgomery, Happy City: Transforming Our Lives Through Urban Design Through-traffic & One-way systems were introduced in the](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011916/5fe1c33e15424677d6783eec/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Through-traffic & One-way systems were introduced in the
1990’s with the classification of the N20 - O’Connell Street
Through traffic uses a street to get from A to B without stopping, it
does not spend money in city centre businesses.
In 2004 O’Connell Street became a Regional Road R527
Where did it all go wrong?

CHARTER FOR THE CONSERVATION OF HISTORIC TOWNS AND URBAN AREAS (WASHINGTON CHARTER 1987)
Adopted by ICOMOS General Assembly in Washington, DC, October 1987.
“12. Traffic inside an historic town or urban area must be
controlled and parking areas must be planned so that they do
not damage the historic fabric or its environment.”

so why is walkability important?

The National Physical Activity guidelines for Ireland recommend
that adults are moderately active for at least 30 minutes a day on 5
days a week (or 150 minutes a week).
Adults are required to walk 10,000 steps a day to maintain a
healthy lifestyle.

"The measure of a great city is how it treats its most vulnerable residents, the young, the old, the disabled and the poor.
One way to measure this is by looking at the amount of transportation options and the availability of parks and other
public spaces for everyone to use."
― Gil Penalosa, 880 Cities

“people who commuted by bike had a 40 per cent lower chance of dying
during the fifteen-year course of the project than those who didn’t.
That’s not far short of a miracle.
If these benefits could be administered in an injection, it would be
considered one of the greatest medical breakthroughs of all time.” ― Peter Walker, Bike Nation: How Cycling Can Save the World

E-BIKES“Aside from the benefits found to some mental abilities, we also saw a trend for mental health improving for the e-bike cyclists, but pedal cyclists did not change on this measure.
This could be because e-bikes may be more enjoyable and easier to ride than normal pedal bikes – helping to improve mental wellbeing.”

PARISMoreno says his concept is based on work done by author and activist Jane Jacobs.
“A neighbourhood,” she wrote, “is not only an association of buildings but also a network of social relationships, an environment where the feelings and the sympathy can flourish.”

BIRMINGHAM
Cities for People
Birmingham plans to remove one of the most significant incentives to motoring: car parking.
Businesses will be incentivised to remove parking spaces through the introduction of an annual £500 per space workplace parking levy, and the city will build 12,800 new homes on former car parks.

ODENSE“We try to think about people living here all their life, and having a good life here,” says Anker Boye, the city’s veteran mayor, a house painter turned professional politician.
“The investors are coming because they know people want to live in Odense.”

what does great citizen engagement look like?
![Page 51: Towards a Vibrant Historic Centre€¦ · ― Charles Montgomery, Happy City: Transforming Our Lives Through Urban Design Through-traffic & One-way systems were introduced in the](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011916/5fe1c33e15424677d6783eec/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
What constitutes citizen engagement: Examples of what doesn’t constitute citizen engagement:
Citizens represent themselves directly as individuals – they are not representing (or being represented by) other groups.
Two-way communication
Aims to share decision-making power and responsibility for those decision.
Includes forums and processes through which citizens come to an opinion which is informed and responsible.
Generates innovative ideas and active participation.
Contributes to collective problem solving and prioritisation.
Requires that information and processes be transparent.
Depends on mutual respect between all participants
Engaging only leaders of stakeholder groups of representatives.
Participation does not influence decision-making.
Participants only consulted at late stages of policy development (when decisions have effectively already been made).
Seeking approval for pre-determined decision.
Fulfilling statutory public consultation requirements without a genuine interest in the opinions of the public.
