"70% Living - 30k Traffic"
- I like this one. Implies that:
- if you go at 20k Living gets up to 80% :-)
- if you go at 40k Living goes down up to 60% :-(
"70% Living - 30k Traffic"
Traffic, Please Allow some Space for Living.
Be Gentle in Residential Areas.
we can draw a graph showing dominance of traffic . . . sorry! very scribbley!
for: http://www.dublincycling.com/cycling/30kph-campaign 30kph Campaign
"The Dublin Cycling Campaign, together with Cyclist.ie, strongly support the introduction of widespread 30Kp/h zones in the city, particularly in residential streets and in the vicinity of schools. In fact we are calling for 30Kp/h to be the default speed limit in urban areas, with higher speed only allowed where they are shown to be safe."
I started with something like "Thirty Together".
But the emphasis on the speed is wrong.
The emphasis should be on Bigger Traffic taking care of Less Powerful People.
"100% Living Area - 30k Traffic Zone"
"70% Living Area - 30k Traffic Zone"
"30k for a better way" - mbleh :-P but fits in with changing priority from traffic to living
"Living Area - Traffic take care at 30k"
"Living Area - Traffic Welcome up to 30k"
Considerate traffic will already be doing 30k or less where there are vulnerable road users around.
"Take a moment to enjoy this living area at a max of 30k . . . " meh
"Welcome to this Living Area - Traffic Please be Gentle with our People"
Thirty Together - Priority for Life, Living People - Welcome to this Living Area
Traffic Tolerated at max 30kph in this Shared Living Area
Welcome to our Shared Living Area.
Priority for Living - Playing - Walking.
Emphasising
- sharing of space and that priority should be for living - playing - walking not for transport.
Pointing out
- that traffic (of all kinds bike, car, bus, truck) is bigger, more powerful than people
- that traffic is a guest in the area
- that traffic should treat those less powerful gently
The streets need to look like a pedestrianised district - underfoot, layout and signage.
Emphasising that motorised traffic does not have ownership of the road in the area.
With Inspiration from the Dutch woonerf - "shared street" and "car is the guest" ideas.
living, residential
area, farmyard
allowable, permitted, accepted, tolerated, admissible, permissible, tolerable, afforded
