Van der Spek, S.C. Smit, M.G.J. Contributor Tan, R.E. Faculty Architecture Department Urbanism Date 2008-07-01 Abstract Pedestrian mobility and the regeneration of the European city centre. Cities can be chaotic and confusing places at the best of times – even for local people! Spatial Metro, a project largely funded by the EU, aims to make city visits more enjoyable for pedestrians by making cities easier to navigate, easier to walk around and easier to understand and appreciate. This is achieved in various ways, including illuminating characteristic buildings, providing ‘metro style’ maps as well as appropriate information and signposting for pedestrians and the application of GPS technology. Together with municipalities and universities, five cities (Norwich, Bristol, Rouen, Koblenz and Biel/Bienne) in North West Europe have carried out pilot studies and exchanged experiences. In this publication, their findings are shared with the reader.
