Covid-19 has rapidly driven change in cities for more sustainable means of urban mobility. Close to overnight, the world has seen a drastic improvement in how cities are performing in terms of mass transit and public transport – following decades of percentage point increases. How can you drive agility to deliver urban mobility projects in a post Covid-19 era? In collaboration with RMIT University, the Academy WebTV is travelling to London, Barcelona and Milan to discover three agile approaches to tackle the Covid-19 challenge.
With the participation of Tom Holbrook (Mayor's Design Advocate, Greater London Authority), Gonzalo Recio Domenech (Researcher at inLAB FIB, UPC) and Stefano Recalcati (Associate Director, Arup)

A superblock (“superilla” in Catalan) is a traffic-regulated area of nine city blocks designed to push cars outside its perimeter and maximise public space inside. Designed by the Barcelona City Council in collaboration with the Urban Ecology Agency, the Superblocks of the Spanish city of Barcelona have proven to be an effective plan to free up the urban space for other uses than automobile traffic. This video is the fourth of a series of 5 on the Superblocks, in which the urban planner – also one of the drivers of the Superblocks concept - Salvador Rueda describes all the key aspects and benefits of those traffic-free neighborhoods. In this video, he explains how the Superblocks participate into a more sustainable mobility and healthy cities.
