The 6th annual Liveable Neighbourhoods conference will discuss the key elements to creating people-friendly streets.

There are a host of reasons why people-friendly streets are in all our interests. Not only do they ease pressure on the NHS but they also boost local economies. They reduce road danger, improve air quality, strengthen community cohesion, encourage the use of public transport, are good for biodiversity and mitigate the risk of flooding.

Expert panels will discuss a range of issues including good engagement, reallocating kerbspace, road danger reduction, infrastructure design, 20-minute neighbourhoods, housing developments designed to improve quality of life, and how to engage with creative sector organisations.

This event will shed light on the benefits of creating a neighbourhood that is less car-dominant. There will also be the latest information on Transport for London’s Better Bus partnerships and Safer Streets programme.
