Streets are a battleground, how do you manage that conflict?
Deborah Saunt, @DSDHA looked at people focused methods to bridge conflict of the cyclist and driver. Segregation isn't the answer, cycle routes encourage speed that is disruptive to pedestrians #NLAFutureStreets

'Show me your budget and I'll tell you what you value', Drew Pinazza @Grosvenor_GBI shows us that streets present London's biggest environmental challenge.
Sustainability is connected to empathy, your culture and process bring you to the result you deliver #NLAFutureStreers

An intriguing distinction from @AlexMcRetail between shopping and buying during @RevoLatest #Insightful2019 debate - you might not buy in a shop, but shops and shopping in them drive buying online (@ least that’s what I think he said?!) – at City of London, London
The Velvet Principle retweeted
@AlexMcRetail reminds us that the notion of places being over-spaced does not mean over-supply is evenly distributed, but around 50% of UK places have too much retail space #Insightful2019 @RevoLatest @ellandi_mark @JerrySchurder – at City of London, London

Technology has proved to be the most significant disruptor for the retail sector. #Insightful2019
