Urban Neighborhoods and Walkable Mobility :An Overview of Planning and Design Principles - Vol.15(3), Jul-Sep - New Delhi Institute of Town Planners 2018 - 82-90p.
Neighborhoods are primary components in towns and cities while urban spaces are its lifelines. People are the main elements, which make such spaces in neighborhoods successful. Making residential neighborhoods pedestrian friendly is a step towards achieving sustainable urban development. Planning and design principles have evolved over ages with specific objectives to resolve concerns of the times. This paper attempts to provide an overview of such principles and models of growth of towns and cities as implemented in the case studies by understanding the salient features of design aimed at people inclusive perspectives. While most theories emphasize shared space ideologies, others are empathetic to the upper tiers of the transportation pyramid- walking, bicycling and public transit. Understanding these similar ideologies from around the world shall deduce critical aspects of planning and design elements implemented as a ready reckoner matrix for further decision and policy making
