CFD-RL-EN.pngThe idea of Car Free Development is gaining increasing attention around the globe.  Designing streets for people, not just cars, is considered to be a key issue in efforts aimed at reducing car dependency and promoting low carbon mobility, such as public transport enhancement and fostering non-motorised transport. Moreover, recent concepts summarised under the term New Street Design help to reconcile traffic movement with the needs of pedestrians and the desire for attractive public spaces.

This document aims at providing the reader with an overview of the latest available literature on Car Free Development and New Street Design. Moreover, it includes links to a wide range of related organisations and projects.
