Cities may have loads of opportunities and energy but have also been linked to a variety of issues affecting human well-being. Traffic noise, commutes, and pollution all end up affecting our stress levels and even our sleeping habits. City planners have the responsibility to ensure that we don’t all go crazy just living our lives.

As awareness about urban development grows, different online groups have formed that are devoted to showcasing the best designs or shaming the worst. We also reached out to Professor Alan March from the Melbourne School of Design to learn more about urban planning in general. So get comfortable and be sure to upvote your favorite examples.

The Speed Camera Lottery In Stockholm, Sweden

The Speed Camera Lottery In Stockholm, Sweden

Drive at or under the speed limit and you'll be entered into a lottery where the prize fund comes from the fines that speeders pay. Average speed reduced from 32 km/h to 25 km/h (a reduction of 22%)

Fake, have never happened even though the idea might actually work! The picture is from Stockholm where I live and that's not a camera connected to that speed sign. And even if the picture have nothing to do with the text, it is still fake! All speed cameras in Sweden is controlled by the police and the police have no lottery. And you can get a ticket if you drive to slow!

This was a PR campaign to lower speeds and start a debate about speeding (it worked to reducera speeds) and how to make it fun to do the right thing ("the fun theory, as they call it). There's no actual lottery from what I know. The campaign was awarded a diploma in 2011 at a Swedish marketing gala, Guldägget ('the Golden egg'). https://guldagget.se/bidrag/rolighetsstipendiethastighetslotteriet/

I really like this. Had a landlord once who said if you paid your rent on time you could deduct $30. Just the wording of, “you can pay less if you pay on time” was so much nicer than, “Pay late and it’s another 30 bucks”. I think of it often in other situations as well.

Yeah, but unfortunately we can’t brag about it - it was just a PR stunt, it was never an actual thing. Would have been totally cool, though, and the people who came up with the idea got a prize and everything.

    We asked Professor Alan March to give a few examples of what are core principles he believes help a city become more livable for its residents. “High enough density to allow services such as schools, parks, infrastructure, healthcare, etc to be provided at an affordable cost. Diverse types of housing and affordable housing. A mix of rent-to-buy, rent, and purchase options, in addition to legal structures that allow co-ownership between non-family members. The ability to move housing according to life circumstances without excessive costs such as stamp duties and other fees.”

    ADVERTISEMENT

    “Low energy use, access to a range of green and other recreational spaces. Excellent schools, jobs, transit, and stable representative democracy. Help for poorer, disabled, elderly, and other people with limited life choices. A relatively equal society whereby birth circumstances in terms of location and Socio-Economic Status of parents do not set out one’s life course,” he added as important things for city planners to design for.

     As the popularity of walkable cities spreads, many urban areas are making streets smaller, removing parking lots, and expanding bicycle infrastructure and walkways. The most hardline advocates actually want to fully remove most cars from urban areas and replace them with robust and extensive public transportation alternatives. We wanted to know his take on the growing anti-car movement and whether it is too extreme of a solution.

    “The idea of a carless city has merit. Designing the city with few or no cars will mean we emit considerably fewer greenhouse gases and have cheaper and more equitable transport via mass transit and walking (and for the many people who cannot drive for many reasons). We will waste fewer resources on car spaces and freeways, get to know our neighbors better, have lower obesity in children (eg walking to school) and adults, and have fewer accidents and other health impacts from pollution. It will depend on cities being designed properly to achieve this.”

    Lastly, for some contrast, we were curious to know if he had any examples of cities that made terrible design choices. Professor Alan March specified that Houston was a ‘good’ example of a bad city, due to “environmental degradation, huge inequality of wealth and housing provisions, gated communities for rich.” It also suffers from an overreliance on cars, as over 75% of residents have stated that they need a motor vehicle to go about their daily tasks.

    One benefit of the pandemic. My town blocked off streets in the historic area so that restaurants and cafes could have outdoor seating. It worked out so well, they decided to keep it. Now it's a pretty, flower-filled area for strolling, shopping, and dining. Small boutiques have moved into the empty storefronts and thrived because of the great foot traffic.

    The abundance of cars on the street creates congestion that had led to Houston having one of the longest average commute times in the United States. This is a result of a comparatively low urban density compared to other US cities, as services, jobs, and public facilities are rarely close together. It’s not all doom and gloom, however, the city authorities are planning to introduce more bicycle infrastructure.

    If there was a way that no more car registrations were approved by the Transport Authorities. Or at least no family of two adults could own more than one car, or similar. Excessive car ownership and usage is a problem. As well as the logic of owners that since a new car has been acquired, the universe owes them parking spaces.

    A lot of european cities strive for this as the ideal city development. Unfortunately it is commonly assumed that its complete realisation is not yet attainable. But some cities (especially Barcelona has been a pioneer at this) try to do their best. It is generally met with concerns as usually a lot of parking spaces are removed. Only that once the transformation is complete, those parking spaces are not really needed any more. Most people in "accessible" cities do not have the need for a car, and more and more of them do not own one.

    This is grid planning and common all over North and South America, in cities that were founded and expanded under colonial rule. The opposite are cities that expand over time, organically. In Barcelona you can see both: a medieval old town and this colonial style grid expansion.

    And despite all the signs put up for a 100 meters, a car is wrecked on the rising central post every week (on average), because the driver of said vehicle was not paying attention, and blindly followed the bus ahead of him/her. Not only in Amsterdam but all over the world. Plenty of YouTube videos for your amusement

    To me, this just looks ugly. I'd rather see a lovely park with underground car parking.
