Dependence on the automobile, environmental pollution and sedentary lifestyles all seriously impair the quality of our life and surrounding environment. There is a growing interest to create enhanced livable pedestrian environment as a way of reclaiming urban vitality. In recent years, we have witnessed a number of initiatives in urban areas throughout North America to create more pedestrian friendly infrastructure and networks, which would encourage and promote walking as a preferable mode of transportation.

520 $a Dependence on the automobile, environmental pollution and sedentary lifestyles all seriously impair the quality of our life and surrounding environment. There is a growing interest to create enhanced livable pedestrian environment as a way of reclaiming urban vitality. In recent years, we have witnessed a number of initiatives in urban areas throughout North America to create more pedestrian friendly infrastructure and networks, which would encourage and promote walking as a preferable mode of transportation.
520 $a In creating a walking environment, the urban design and landscape architecture communities are recently concerned about analysis and design interventions to create more context sensitive streetscapes. Well-designed streetscape is fundamental in making attractive places and promoting desirable destinations to live and work, or to visit. Moreover, effective and creative streetscape design can help to define a special location and a sense of place. As a whole, today's successful urban centers have started to incorporate a highly developed and well-connected public realm consisting of a linked network of streets, parks, open spaces, trails and regional recreational destinations.
520 $a This practicum recommends guidelines for developing the appropriate streetscapes to create a pedestrian network in the Town of Morden, a small town in Southern Manitoba. At the same time, the proposed interventions identify other potential design components to create in a pedestrian network reflective of vibrant cultural and local identities.
