( Only yesterday I quoted Peñalosa on the blog and, surprise, on Wednesday I could talk for a couple minutes with him in the presentation of 2030, 10 cities, here are the note of the expo-recommended-and the interview with him will go up later.)
They project a possible future Mexico City by 2030
Mexico City .- In a suit to challenge the existing urban pattern and build cities for people and not cars, opened tonight exposure Our cities, our future , a vision of 10 major cities.
The exhibition consists of works of 10 architects invited by the Institute for Policy Transportation and Development (ITDP), an organization that promotes public policies and good practice, specializing in urban transport, sustainable and equitable.
The task of the architects was to imagine how it could be the future of 10 cities in the world, with a proposal for mobility and urban transformation.
The former mayor of Bogotá, Enrique Penalosa, a major driver in the world of mobility policies, has sued politicians, transport planners and engineers to focus their work on people, not cars.
"The law states that citizens are equal, so eighty people who travel on a bus are entitled to eighty times the space where a person travels by car," said Peñalosa to opening the exhibition.
