Urban planner pushes for ‘pedestrianising’ select streets

CAN a street in your neighbourhood be made into a mini-park?An urban planner and transportation expert yesterday sought to make more streets in the country pedestrian-friendly to become a place for active transportation, exercise and business opportunities.

Robert Siy of Move As One Coalition said pedestrianising select streets would also be helpful in the time of the epidemic, when people needed some open space and some sun.
