Bicycle Culture by Design: Mikael Colville-Andersen at TEDxZurich

The focus on re-establishing more liveable cities continues unabated. The primary problem however is that 85 years of traffic engineering revolving around the car has failed miserably.

Using basic design principles instead of engineering is the surest route to developing thriving, human cities. Mikael Colville-An
