The City at 5kph

This year Adelaide joined 85 other cities in over 19 countries to host Jane’s Walk a movement whose aim is to promote walkable neighbourhoods, improve urban literacy and promote cities by people, for people. The walk brought together over 30 eager people and one dog willing to re-discover the city by participating in a moving conversation that occasionally stopped for caffeine and informative discussion. It was an informal forum where the conversation leaders (see 30.03.12 blog post) spoke of the successes and pitfalls of built urban fabric and policy in Adelaide. 

The route snaked its way through the streets, connecting points of interest that represented the importance of community and strong,heterogeneous neighbourhoods. The walk highlighted the fact that the city is made up of people, not just the built objects that traditionally define 'great' cities. All the speakers on the tour accentuated and displayed the hidden stories that actually give a cultural definition to Adelaide.
