Rationale: Why have you chosen this case for the landscape and democracy seminar?
- «My street» project is a big governmental project of Moscow. The aim of the project is to make the city center more comfortable for pedestrians and bring more cyclists to the city what is quite usual for any developing big city. The first phase of the program (2014-2015 years) will focus on creating new pedestrian zones within and outside the central part of town – about 50 kilometers of pedestrian streets and especially areas near the metro and transport interchange nodes. There is also a big target to make the city greener. According to Moscow Government, the project is one of the main directions for the city improvement in the coming years.
However, the project doesn’t involve people’s opinion and creates a lot of problems for pedestrians and car drivers and in fact makes cycle lanes useless because of fast and not accurate design.
