The upcoming Global Street Design Guide will be a timely resource that will set a global baseline for designing streets and public spaces while redefining the role of streets in a rapidly urbanizing world. The Guide will broaden how to measure the success of urban streets to include access, safety and mobility for all users, environmental quality, economic benefit, public health and overall quality of life.

GDCI and the Bloomberg Initiative for Global Road Safety: A 6-year Status Update
GDCI has been proud to lead and support the design, delivery, and evaluation of safe street infrastructure across 16 cities in 10 countries as a Bloomberg Philanthropies Initiative for Global Road Safety (BIGRS) Partner. We look back at the last six years of achievements.
In the heart of Setapak, Kuala Lumpur, where speeding vehicles and pedestrian movement intertwine daily, SK Danau Kota 2 has become the focal point of a transformative initiative aimed to make school streets safer for students to walk and cycle. This project was backed by the Bloomberg Initiative for Global Road Safety (BIGRS), a program that has committed to address rising concerns over road traffic deaths and support road safety interventions in cities worldwide.
