Welcome to Liveable Neighbourhoods

The 6th annual Liveable Neighbourhoods conference will discuss the key
elements to creating people-friendly streets.

There are a host of reasons why people-friendly streets are in all our interests.
Not only do they ease pressure on the NHS but they also boost local economies.
They reduce road danger, improve air quality, strengthen community cohesion,
encourage the use of public transport, are good for biodiversity and mitigate the risk
of flooding.

Expert panels will discuss a range of issues including good engagement, reallocating kerbspace, road danger reduction, infrastructure design, 20-minute neighbourhoods, housing developments designed to improve quality of life, and how to engage with creative sector organisations.

This event will shed light on the benefits of creating a neighbourhood that is less car-dominant. There will also be the latest information on Transport for London’s Better Bus partnerships and Safer Streets programme

What's going to be discussed:

Why every successful scheme needs good comms and engagement
Techniques for debunking misinformation
How to achieve behaviour change – A look at the 'sticks' and 'carrots' for encouraging modal shift
Transferring kerbspace from parked cars to other uses such as bus lanes, street trees, rain gardens and parklets
Road danger reduction measures including 20mph limits, modal filters, side road zebra crossings and changes to junctions

Developing a 20-minute Neighbourhood that encompasses all the essential services and amenities
Delivering homes, streets and neighbourhoods that improve people's quality of life and enable more sustainable ways of living
Incorporating public art and engagement with creative sector organisations into projects
Plus a spotlight on Enfield's Journey & Places programme and a walking tour of Enfield Town's Liveable Neighbourhoods project
