Background

Local Context

Tel Aviv’s public realm and especially pavements are falling short in space to accommodate all users. In some areas, the number of pedestrians, micro mobility vehicles, delivery motorbikes and large size vehicles practically collapse the pathway’s capacity, making it impossible or even risky to walk.

The Tel Aviv municipality has yet to tackle the problem and is approaching this challenge in an exploratory way.
