open in viewerThe goal of this project was to assist the team’s sponsor, EMOV, to increase the safety and walkability of school zones throughout Cuenca, Ecuador to improve the security of the area and encourage more children to walk to school. Using observations, surveys, and interviews the team developed pilot tests for Tactical Urbanism interventions at two schools: Luis Cordero and Abelardo Tamariz. One intervention design created a half-pedestrianized street adjacent to a school and the other enhanced the walk to school with distance markers and games. After analyzing the pilot test results, the team recommended to EMOV, the transportation department of Cuenca, that they permanently implement the half-pedestrianization and further explore the positive effects of the distance marker implementation.
