Plan Encompassing Six Cities

GoHuman, a project of the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), is an educational campaign established to demonstrate to Southern California residents the power of human-focused mobility options with the intent of providing a shift in dependency from cars to walking and biking.

Studio One Eleven’s tactical urbanism effort occurred in six cities; Costa Mesa, Walnut Park, West Covina, Arrow Highway, Culver City, and La Cañada. Focusing on the importance of mobility, the team analyzed the pedestrian experience for each of the cities, creating temporary bike lanes, bulb-outs, and sidewalk extensions to create safer streets for the surrounding communities.

As part of the GoHuman project team, Studio One Eleven’s role was to work directly with advisory committees and community leaders to establish goals to develop a site design for each corridor. The team implemented these designs into a unique onsite installation that was specific to each city.

These temporary installations allowed each city to test specific street improvements for a duration of time and collect feedback from the community to include in grant applications for funding future permanent installations. This effort corresponds with Studio One Eleven’s mission of enhancing the livability and functionality of cities through sustainable design solutions that focus on the needs of the communities.
