We believe that streets should be more than traffic corridors. They are important for the vibrancy, economic health, and safety of neighbourhoods; they can help to improve community cohesion by bringing people of different ages and backgrounds together in a shared space; they are outdoor gyms which people can use to get active through walking and cycling; and they are potential playgrounds for children – particularly those that do not live close to parks and playing fields. Excessive numbers of motor vehicles, both parked and on the move, have drastically damaged the social function of our streets..
We want to see an end to pavement parking, particularly where it inconveniences pedestrians or puts them danger. Pavement parking is anti-social. We have an ageing population with increasing levels of mobility and visual impairments. People with disabilities, and parents with children in pushchairs are those most affected by vehicles blocking the pavement.
