What You'll Learn
An accessible introduction to how cities move people — and why most of them do it badly. Covers the fundamental concepts of urban mobility, transport planning, and how cities can prepare for a future with less car dependence.
Key Topics
- Module 1: Mobility and Urban Space — how transport modes consume radically different amounts of city space (one car lane = space for 14 bicycle lanes)
- Core concepts of urban mobility planning
- Innovative approaches to transport systems
- How cities can improve transport and support broader mobility access
- Future technologies transforming urban movement
Why This Matters for She Cycles
Module 1 alone gives you the most powerful visual argument for cycling: the space comparison. One photo showing how much road space 60 cars vs. 60 bicycles vs. 60 bus passengers take is worth a thousand policy documents.
