Global Influences

The Global Street Design Guide was informed by a variety of geographic contexts from around the world and has been created for global cities by global cities.

Each city offers lessons on the range of challenges presented in street design processes, as well as best practice strategies for others to learn from.

The case studies provided in the Streets Chapter were developed with local partners to demonstrate a range of examples where cities have radically transformed their streets. Other examples of best practices are spread throughout the guide.

Input from over 40 countries and 70 cities around the world was collected by an international production team working with global consultants and a specially created Global Expert Contributor Network.

The case studies numbered on the map below provide a glimpse of innovative street projects of varying types and scales.
