  • June 6-8, 2019 London, Uk CONFERENCE INTERNATIONAL
    INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE london, uk JunE 6-8, 2019 WELCOME As we prepared for the 9th International Public Markets Conference four years ago, Project for Public Spaces decided to frame the event around one big question: What if we challenged each of our communities to become a “market city” – a community with a robust network of markets and a citywide strategy to support them, like the host city of Barcelona itself? This year, for the 10th edition of this conference, I am excited to announce the launch of a Market Cities Initiative here at Project for Public Spaces, which Phil Myrick will build upon our decades of planning, research, education, and advocacy CEO for public markets. This initiative will help cities around the world scale up Project for the impact of their market systems through regional strategy, policy, and Public Spaces governance. We could not ask for a better place in which to announce this initiative than London, a city of nearly 300 markets, some with 1,000 years of history; a city that today, under the leadership of the Mayor of London, is pursuing bold new research and governance efforts to support their many markets. So welcome, market champions, to one of the world’s great market cities! I’m delighted to co-host the 10th International Public Markets Conference with Project for Public Spaces, at a time when London’s markets are booming. There are now almost 300 street and covered markets in the city offering an astonishing range of goods. This event shines a spotlight on the sheer breadth of what our markets offer.

  • Lea Bridge Road a Street for Everyone Tell Us Public Consultation Document Section H Your
    Lea Bridge Road A street for everyone Tell us Public consultation document Section H your views 1 Lea Bridge Road: a street for everyone Introduction Mni-Holland is an exciting programme to improve walking and cycling in the borough. Plans for Lea Bridge Road aim to change the area, making significant improvements for not only people who cycle but for everyone using the road. The road is one of the key strategic routes in the borough running from the Whipps Cross Roundabout to the Lee Valley Ice Centre near the Hackney Boundary. The road is heavily used, with up to 30,000 vehicles and 1,500 cyclists on it every day. It is currently primarily used by those travelling through the borough into neighbouring Hackney and further into the heart of London. Over the past five years, accidents resulting in injury to pedestrians and cyclists have increased. Between 2009 and 2013 a total of 173 cyclists and 68 pedestrians were injured on the road, including 24 serious accidents and one fatality. Changes are needed to make the road easier to navigate for all road users and to increase the safety and create a more forgiving street environment, particularly for people who cycle. Aims of the scheme As part of the Mini-Holland Programme, we are investing in Lea Bridge Road to build upon the recent Bakers Arms regeneration and transform the street, particularly to increase pedestrian footfall and the number of people who cycle. The scheme is a key council project and will change the landscape of the area, making significant improvements to public spaces, junctions, bridges, footways and cycling facilities.
