2020 Digital Lecture Series: Changing Transport and Public Realm in the City

Bruce McVean, Acting Assistant Director, City Transportation, City of London Corporation and Roy McGowan of Momentum Transport consultancy discuss “City Streets - the Transportation response to support the City’s recovery from Covid -19”.

The scheme is primarily focused on providing the space needed to maintain social distancing on our streets and to enable safe walking, cycling and the managed use of public transport.
