Taking safety into account in urban development:
challenges and methodology

> Table of Contents
• Safety, an urban development challenge • Spatial design:
a factor of safety • Method: How can the safety issue be incorporated into urban planning? •

Introduction


How can urban development meet the population's demand for safety and what solutions can be offered to urban development professionals faced with problems of insecurity?

What alternative ways are there of improving safety to methods that threaten the continuity of the urban fabric and how can one go beyond a purely technical vision of this geared solely to protecting public spaces? In other words, how can we reconcile urban quality with safety and security?

After analysing foreign and French experiences, IAURIF here sets out some topics for discussion and presents a methodology aimed at encouraging and helping those involved in urban development to consider safety as being part of their work.
