In March 2026, GDCI will launch a series of open and global webinar sessions on Designing for Safe Speeds —our latest supplement to the award-winning Global Street Design Guide. The series will explore key principles from the guide, share practical design strategies, and highlight real-world examples that demonstrate how cities are managing speeds and saving lives.
As part of a collaboration between Agenzia Mobilità Ambiente Territorio (AMAT), Bloomberg Associates and the Global Designing Cities Initiative, the City of Milan has developed an innovative public space program named Piazze Aperte or “Open squares.”
