The\u00a0Better Block<\/a> team, famous for their tactical approach, travelled twice to Australia in 2013 to share their method. Australians have been listening! Phil Stubbs, media educator, initiated Clovelly Road Better Block, 4th<\/sup>\u00a0in the country, 1st<\/sup>\u00a0in Sydney and made it work thanks to Facebook<\/a>. The purpose was to transform for a day the shopping strip of Clovelly Road and make it greener, safer and human – by slowing traffic and adding trees, tables, chairs, art, music, food and more life in general.\u00a0It has been a great success as about 3000 people – both from the local community and civic leaders – attended the event.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This was also the opportunity to conduct a\u00a0community survey on what their perceptions on the current state, their needs for the future, their ideas, the means available in the area. Finally the team used a vacant shop and facades to show, explain and inspire for longer term actions in terms of placemaking, sustainable development, local food production and cycling infrastructure (\u201cBike\u00a0Friendly Clovelly\u201d).<\/p>\n
