Cities around the world are trying to find ways to reclaim their streets for people, for
walking, biking, and scootering from point to point. The goal is to make cities safer,
cleaner and more fun while reducing or eliminating altogether the number of cars and
trucks that have dominated urban landscapes for almost a century. We talk to the Lord
Mayor of Heidelberg, Germany, Dr. Eckart Wurzner, about his city’s efforts to create a
car-free community, and Chris Shears, an urban designer, and planner who has long
advocated for transit-oriented, infill development to move Americans beyond
auto-dependence.
