Sheffield Becoming A 15 Minute City

So when is the development of all these fine things within 15 mins of everyone going to start, are there any plans available to view, has money been set aside, when's it happening?

Which bit of this don’t you get?

 

No one here has said they are implementing 15 min neighbourhoods, so why would anyone be putting money aside for it?

Shops, cafes, libraries, schools, doctors etc all within 15 minutes walk sounds like a good thing to me, or would you rather they were further away?

We all agree that would be a good thing but, nobody can tell us who is going to put them there so it's all a dream.

We may get a lot of new regulations but, WILL WE get all these new facilities?

Not on your life.

The council claims they are skint.  The government claims they are skint.  It will all cost money.

we live in a city, for the most part these amenities:

 

shops

schools

pubs

parks

libraries

church

dentists

GP surgery

leisure centre (trickier maybe? but if we expand the definition to include gyms, climbing walls, yoga studios, etc. you get the idea)

etc.

etc.

 

are already within a 15min walk, for most people.

 

Some neighbourhoods are better served than others, and there are examples where the walkable routes could be improved... But it's basically already here.

 

how about we all take a breath, and get a grip.
