On Wednesday, the 28th of April the Austrian mobility management consultant Karl-Heinz Posch presented the concept of Shared Space in the Town Hall conference room. Shared space removes the traditional segregation of motor vehicles, pedestrians and other road users. Conventional road priority management systems and devices are replaced with an integrated, people-oriented understanding of public space, so pedestrians and cyclists are the focus of the shared space concept. Here you can listen to the whole presentation. Read more

For half a year Hari from Saiier Transport and Chandresh and Taj from Auroville Community Transport comprise a team. Their Pondi/Auroville trips (and other bus services) are in cooperation between a government funded institution and a private initiative. The common goal is to support mobility within Auroville from individualized, fossil based transport to alternative energy; a more eco-friendly, collective transport solution. How is the cooperation, what are the challenges, the plans and visions - the trio speaks of their realistic yet magic ideas.

AurovilleRadio stands in front of the Solar Kitchen at the end of the cycling workshop and brings to its listeners some fresh perspectives. This is the third of the series of coverage by AurovilleRadio on the efforts to make cycling pleasant and safe in the city of dawn. You heard Raghu and Chandresh earlier talk about their vision in holding workshops and inviting students to help create a small cycle friendly area. There was a presentation to the community in which some Aurovillians expressed skepticism. The designers then began the creation. AurovilleRadio now interviews some designers at the demonstration to understand what they have built and to share it with our listeners.

Cycle paths cover the town like veins, at night lighted with solar lamps, a pakka sign system guides the cyclists, shelters are posted at important junctions and if you don’t have one on your own, there you can rent-a-cycle-for-free – the vision of a bicycle, transport friendly town. How this could be realized in Auroville, will be explored in a one-month-workshop with young Indian designers, starting 18th May. An interview with Raghu and Chandresh, the organizing team; they emphasize how Aurovillians can and will be involved in this user-centred design process.

The Information Service called for a Presentation / Sharing on the impact and challenges related to guests, visitors and tourists from the point of view of Visitors Centre and Information Service. The Presentation took place on Thursday April 2nd at Visitors Centre. We see the need, and have already started, to work together with other services, groups and interests in Auroville to try and find appropriate ways of dealing with all of these so that the community does not feel swamped and imposed upon in the process. We need to start a reflection on what we want and how.
