Together we reflected around four key themes that are central to thinking about the future-proof cities around the globe – using the excellent case study of Pontevedra as learning grounds, and further, a testbed for innovations:

The speakers
The city of Pontevedra
Beginning in 1999, the City of Pontevedra adopted a new city model that aimed to shift attention from private motorised vehicles instead to the city’s pedestrians. The city council went about banning all but essential traffic, and promoted journeys by foot, bicycle or public transport. The city suppressed indiscriminate parking in central streets, thereby cutting down immensely on inner-city traffic jams.
