How do we plan and design places for the collective good? What would our towns and cities look like if we funded public transport for environmental and social goals? And what would be the impact on our communities if we championed design quality?

As part of The Bartlett's Real World Impact campaign, this animation explores the quality of places, including their transport and infrastructure, as they are the foundations of our cities and regions. Researchers at The Bartlett are working with public transport operators, regional and local governments, to show how planning can improve our urban areas and our quality of life.

By putting citizens, practitioners and community groups at the forefront of planning and place-making, and equipping them with research and resources, we hope to improve lives around the world.
