Five Lessons in Good Cycling Infrastructure

Inspired by Dutch design, this session looks at the five design themes of coherence, directness, attractiveness, safety and comfort, and through a series of examples considers design implications and how they might be balanced.

Designing for Walking & Wheeling

Walking and wheeling is an ubiquitous mode of transport, but often overlooked and seen as a problem to design around. This session introduces the key issues and shows how getting the basics right enables walking and wheeling.

Beyond the Bicycle

This session examines cycling as an inclusive means of transport against the Equality Act 2010 and the Social Model of Disability. It considers design and how considering one group’s needs can benefit everyone.

Vision Zero, Sustainable Safety & Road Danger Reduction

This session compares and contrasts three safety models and looks at the design principles underpinning them with examples as well as a look to the future.

Introducing Inclusive Mobility

A short session which introduces the Equality Act 2010, the Social Model of Disability, looks at the differences between equality and inclusivity, and then looks at the considerations for delivering inclusive mobility.

Getting Vehicle Crossings Right

A look at an ubiquitous street issue where we all to often make it easy to drive over the footway when we should be making it east to walk and wheel along the footway

Filtered Permeability

This half-day session looks at the principles underpinning filtered permeability along with the legislative background, configurations, designing for different modes, the added extras and a workshop session.

Risk, Liability & Designers

This module provides an introduction to a tricky area where law, standards and guidance often overlap, the relationship between hazards and risks and how setting objectives help us check our designs. There are case studies and a chance to debate.
