An interview with Jeff Speck, Author of Walkable City: How Downtown Can Save America One Step at a Time.
How do you create an environment in which people are making the choice to walk or bike, in fact, rather than to drive? And the answer is that the walk has to be as good as the drive. And for the walk to be as good as the drive. It needs to do four things simultaneously. It needs to be useful, safe, comfortable, and interesting. So we look at the factors that contribute to each of those four things. And we try to improve them.
