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.
Learn how we are helping cities create more cleaner, greener, streets and public spaces.
See how our Streets for Kids projects are helping more kids and young people get to school and play safely, while also creating comfortable, healthy, and enjoyable spaces for their caregivers and the wider community.
"The guidance, vision, and flexibility articulated in the Guide represents a new and important direction for cities and communities and is an indispensable tool for planning a more equitable future," says World Bank President Ajay Banga.
