Accessibility has been a major factor underlying the founding and growth of cities across the world.As our cities expand at an unprecedented rate in size and population, their liveability will be determined by how judiciously they can combine the different modes of transportation. And how the benefits of efficient movement are made available to the vast majority of the population of our cities. This is essential, since mobility is in fact synonymous with social and economic opportunities in cities. Walking is without doubt the mother of all modes of transportation. Planners, politicians and citizens must prioritise pedestrian movement above all other types of movements if our cities are to remain liveable in future.
