Project Description:

The research seeks to explore contemporary national and international practices and thinking on Shared Spaces, Shared Surfaces and Home Zones and to investigate these concepts from a Universal Design approach in the Irish urban environment. The project was conducted over 6 months and has involved an extensive literature review of national and international best practice, guidelines, reports and peer reviewed journal papers in relation to Shared Space, Shared Surfaces and Home Zones. In addition to this, engagement with over twenty organisations, interviews with over thirty individuals, site visits and analysis of urban spaces and Hoem Zones, and two workshops informed the research. Key urban issues, road design and user cocnerns have also been examined and these form the backdrop to Shared Space, Shared Surfaces and Home Zone concepts in the Irish context.
