Abstract

How can projects for redistributing and repurposing public streets succeed? What can be learned from successful national and international examples? The brochure summarizes practical experiences of redesigning streets in favor of active mobility and the quality of life in cities. Good examples from Germany and Europe were examined using an evaluation matrix. Many show recurring success factors. The brochure presents nine key factors for successful street transformation that address specific aspects in the planning and implementation process. Municipalities and planners can use it to advance future projects more easily.
