Episode description

In Episode 7, we're discussing school streets and play streets; two types of temporary road closures that make our communities, well, a bit more pleasant. We find out what's involved with school and play streets and the wider benefits to the community, which spurs Adam to have a moan about bollard removal and Ned to have a moan about local authorities. Laura interviews two experts on the subject: Alice Swift, Project Coordinator for School Streets at Sustrans and Alice Ferguson, co-founder of charity Playing Out.

We hope you enjoy this episode of Streets Ahead, a podcast dedicated to the world of active travel, liveable streets and people-focused urban design.
