The document discusses a mayor outlining their "Four Commandments of Cities" which are that a future city must be 1) environmentally friendly, 2) have good mobility and integrate its people, 3) be socially integrated, and 4) use technology. It prompts the reader to consider if they agree with the mayor's commandments and if all in the city would support the vision, as well as reflect on characteristics of a city they know.

A tale for many citiesRamesh Vasave

The writer defines a city as a dense amalgamation of buildings and people that must provide equity and sustainability. The two key requirements of a city are provision of basic services and social infrastructure, which must be developed together. Some of the essential components of a city that require planning and implementation include streets, public transport, traffic management, affordable housing, drainage, water, sewage, and garbage. The writer is an architect who has been closely connected with Delhi and its planning, and argues we are at a crucial point for urban planning due to rapid population growth in cities.Future of Cities: Thinking for the long-term

This document discusses the future of cities and focuses on three main points. First, it notes that urban populations are growing rapidly worldwide and will continue to do so in the coming decades. Second, it argues that cities need to be considered and planned for in the long-term due to their complex, interdependent systems that impact each other over many years. Third, it suggests that future planning for sustainable cities will require diverse evidence, analytical methods, and involvement of local communities.Co-city

The document discusses how new modes of micro-mobility like electric bikes and scooters are revolutionizing transportation in cities, similarly to how elevators and cars changed cities in the past. It notes that these new options provide convenient and affordable transportation for short trips, but also bring challenges of insufficient regulation that have led to injuries. The implications of these changes on urban planning and interaction with autonomous vehicles remain uncertain. The author argues we cannot predict the full impact but that a transportation revolution is underway that will change many cities.The 10 ingredients for smart cities in India

Goals are outlined like reducing road casualties by 30% by 2020 and prioritizing pedestrians and cyclists in transportation. Congestion costs could rise dramatically by 2020 without changes. Targets aim to boost cycling, public transit, address climate change and improve health. The document also examines how to manage increased car usage and parking demand in cities through strategies like increasing street speed limits, assessing required road space, and promoting alternative transit and mobility options.Smarter cities

This document discusses smart cities and provides examples of smart city initiatives. It defines a smart city as one that uses technology and data to improve quality of life, reduce environmental impact, and decrease energy demand. It outlines six dimensions of smart cities: smart economy, smart people, smart governance, smart mobility, smart environment, and smart living. Examples of smart city projects in Amsterdam and Stockholm are described. The document also discusses how information and communication technologies can be applied in areas like smart street lighting, traffic management, and interactive bus stops. It suggests some possibilities for smart city initiatives in Nepal, like using sensors to manage street lighting and renewable energy sources.L. How do you envision the city of the future?

Across the UK we are seeing more and more examples of smart city transformation. Key 'smart' sectors utilised by such Cities include transport, energy, health care, water and waste. Against the current background of economic, social, security and technological changes caused by the globalization and the integration process, cities in the UK face the challenge of combining competitiveness and sustainable urban development simultaneously.
A smart city is a place where the traditional networks and services are made more efficient with the use of digital and telecommunication technologies, for the benefit of its inhabitants and businesses.
With this vision in mind, the European Union is investing in ICT research and innovation and developing policies to improve the quality of life of citizens and make cities more sustainable in view of Europe's 20-20-20 targets.
The smart city concept goes beyond the use of ICT for better resource use and less emissions. It means smarter urban transport networks, upgraded water supply and waste disposal facilities, and more efficient ways to light and heat buildings.
And it also encompasses a more interactive and responsive city administration, safer and secure public spaces.
Smart Cities UK lead the way on addressing the best practice examples on smart transformation from across Cities within the United Kingdom whilst disseminating guidance and information transformation within waste, energy, transport and other key smart sectors.L.how do you envision the city of the future

The project involved governmental agencies and the private sector working with community volunteers to paint the roads, add planters and flowers, and set up bike parking. It is estimated to have reduced CO2 emissions during the forum week while increasing equity, employment opportunities, and integration among different groups. The organizers reflected on whether the project achieved its goals of participation, equity, employment, inclusion, and co-benefits like health and road safety.#cityfutures: Building a transport system for a sustainable future (Katja Ley...

This is a dramatically different user experience context that demands a transformation of our approach to service design. In this session we will share findings from our global research that explored the experiences and opportunities involved in moving from an ownership economy to one built on access and sharing.

Smartups are presented as disruptive to big businesses and as offering a new fast growth model by tapping into higher-value services related to housing, transportation, food, and more. Key points made about Smartups include that they work to replace resource-intensive ways of fulfilling human needs with radically less intensive alternatives, increase perceived user value beyond just savings, and disrupt entire industries and value chains rather than single businesses. The document concludes by noting next steps like spreading the message and enjoying the ride of supporting Smartups over the next five years.Creating a Smarter Planet, City by city (Rashik Parmar)

- An overwhelming preference for walkable neighbourhoods, especially in Toronto.
- Living in a walkable neighbourhood is associated with more walking, more transit use, less driving, lower body weights, and greater physical activity.
- Neighbourhood design and preferences significantly influence travel choices and body weight. Residents who prefer walkable neighbourhoods have healthier travel patterns.
- Many Toronto neighbourhoods that are currently not walkable and have low-income residents could benefit the most from improved walkability.Downie district framework plan (final)

Urban design can significantly impact the economic, environmental, social, and cultural outcomes of a place. It influences factors like local business success, housing costs, transportation access, and how people interact. Key elements of urban design include buildings, public spaces, streets, transportation systems, and landscape features. Buildings define the streetscape while public spaces are where people come together. Streets connect places and their design impacts walkability. Transportation networks enable movement throughout the city. Landscape provides green spaces that enhance character and beauty.Elements of Urban Design
Elements of Urban DesignRussel Lowell Ala

This document discusses the key elements of urban design: buildings, public spaces, streets, transport, and landscape. It provides examples for each element. Buildings shape urban spaces and give a sense of place. Public spaces are living rooms of the city where people gather. Streets connect spaces and are defined by their dimensions, scale, and surrounding buildings. Transport networks enable movement throughout cities. Landscape includes green spaces like parks and trees that provide contrast. Together these elements are woven into the overall urban design structure.Movement for Liveable London Street Talks - Andrew Cameron 14th June 2011
