East Renfrewshire Council, GB Spaces for People

In Progress

This initiative adapts sidewalks, cycling trails, and streets to meet physical distancing recommendations. Council officials received 5,000 resident comments about high-traffic areas on its Commonplace platform. An interactive map allowed local commuters to mark trouble spots and provide suggestions. Public comments and votes guided temporary roadblocks, signage, and other interventions that encourage active travel.
