Strassenraum street space Explanation: The fundamental issue that must be addressed in the redesign of a commercial street is how to allocate its space. "Balancing" spaces is a concept that is used to describe allotting room for pedestrian needs - encouraging a lively, active public space - while at the same time maintaining appropriate vehicular space for deliveries, parking, local access, and through movement. Balancing street spaces is both a design and a management problem, because it can be achieved by making physical changes to a street (as by creating a traffic-free mall or widening sidewalks) and by changing regulations, which control street functions. An example of the latter is a street that may be used in different ways during the course of a day: turned over to pedestrians alone from, say, noon until 2 p.m., with full vehicle access permitted the rest of the day. This flexible approach to street improvements requires active day-to-day management to ensure its success.

Strassenraum streets Explanation: Ich würde sagen, mit deinem 'parking in public streets' liegst du schon ganz richtigt. Das Wort 'Straßenraum' halte ich für einen typischen Fall, wo im Deutschen ein völlig ausreichender Begriff (hier: Straße) verkompliziert wird, um offizieller oder wissenschaftlicher zu klingen. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2006-11-04 11:09:31 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- parking *on* public streets |
