"Problem:
Where fast moving cars and pedestrians meet in cities, the #cars overwhelm the #pedestrians. The car is king, and people are made to feel small....
... Solution:
We conclude that any pedestrian path along a road carrying fast-moving cars should be about 18 inches above the road, with a low wall or railing, or balustrade along the edge, to mark the edge. Put the raised walk on only one side of the road - make it as wide as possible." Christopher Alexander, A Pattern Language #patternlanguage #christopheralexander
