Covid has accelerated many pre-existing trends. Many cities have taken action to accommodate changing citizen needs, providing areas to cycle, walk or meet outside. City leaders are considering long-term recovery, trying to assess how citizens will work, live and play in an urban environment and prioritising sustainable and equitable urban development, affordable housing, green technologies and active, low-carbon mobility.
Key elements are liveability, the revival of the neighbourhoods and the future of work, pointing to the concept of the 15-minute city – where live, work, education and daily necessities are within easy walk or cycle of home. Many cities have developed variations of this: Brussels is planning for a 10-minute city and Melbourne for residents to ‘live locally’ within 20-minute neighbourhoods.
