Description

The Global Street Design Guide sets a global baseline for designing streets and public spaces in a rapidly urbanizing world. It presents first-ever worldwide standards for designing city streets, prioritizing safety, pedestrians, transit, and sustainable mobility. This guide builds upon successful tools and tactics from NACTO's Urban Street Design Guide and Urban Bikeway Design Guide, addressing various street typologies and design elements found around the world. Participating experts from global cities have contributed to its development, ensuring a comprehensive approach to designing streets that offer safe and enticing travel choices for all people. By incorporating principles such as access, safety, mobility for all users, environmental quality, economic benefit, public health, and overall quality of life, this guide helps cities unlock the potential of their public space networks.
