Space4People

network of cities about the challenge of public space use for different purposes connected to transportation (driving and parking vs. public space for people)

#Bielefeld project #altstadt.raum: at 2nd stakeholder workshop on March 23, the topics of accessibility and parking were discussed. The aim is to agree on the tasks for the planning experts. Their work on ideas for implementation will take place in the second half of 2023.

#Bielefeld will receive over 3 million Euro for implementing measures in the Old Town, i.e. for new use of public space, against overheating in summers and to deal with heavy rain events. The application was approved by federal programm "adaption of urban space to climate change"

Great concession from #URBACT! Some of our partners in Space4People network couldn't keep the deadline for final progress report, which was today. But URBACT agreed on an extension. Very non-bureaucratic and flexible as well as our first level controller. A story to remember!

Wow, the German Bicycle Prize 2022 for infrastructure measures goes to cycling network of Ostwestfalen Lippe region and thus to Bielefeld and its neighboring districts! A great success for the integrated cycling concept and a boost for Bielefeld's sustainable mobility strategy!

Bielefeld's #UVAR pilot at the oldtown horseshoe will start in June! City Council decided last night that the oldtown should become much more attractive for customers and visitors by testing more outdoor gastronomy at street parking space and closure of some streets for cars.

Today the URBACT Summer University is starting - due to COVID19 it's taking place online for the first time. To be honest, it feels a bit strange to me to join it online, but I am very curious how it will work.

[Space4People @PeopleSpace4]

First online meeting with our partners of #URBACT network Space4People after final application. I am very happy that we will start our work on integrated action plans to give the public space back to the people! Thank 's a lot to Kris of #URBACT for joining our online event
