"School streets" are one of those concepts that sounds kind of whatever, but is actually a total game changer when you see it in action (like this incredible installation in @CityofTirana, in partnership with @Qendra_M). 🧵

Fentiman Road in Lambeth's Oval LTN has been absolutely transformed. New planting & SUDS, seating, bike parking. Looks fantastic. Great work @lambeth_council @RezinaChowdhury @clairekholland
Lots of fun in Tyre designing streets for kids and planning a space transformation outside a school with the students, @The_ChainEffect, and Tyre Municipality 💚 Planting, painting, seating, crossings, play and much more! Thanks to @GlobalStreets for the excitement & support 🌞
Amazing to see the complete transformation of this school street in Paris from a narrow road clogged with car parking in 2020 to a beautiful, green public space in 2022. A few nice examples of this in London, but we definitely need more permanent school street transformations!!
With a nice chain effect wall at the back!
This morning, I participated in a bicycle group ride organised by @Wavebike_Lb. The group rides help cyclists getting accustomed to cycling in Beiruti traffic. Cycling is a state if mind. I feel safe and comfortable on my bike in Beirut. And had a fun morning.
