A leveza de andar : o desenvolvimento de políticas urbanas voltadas para os pedestres em Copenhague, Dinamarca (1960-2015)

• Firstly, an introduction to carfree urban planning is presented in the article, together with a summary of the main advantages with carfree streets for people and the environment. The article analyses the transformation of the Copenhagen city centre through the gradual implementation of pedestrian, carfree streets during the years between 1960 up to now. Based on material from the Copenhagen Municipal Archive among other sources, we follow the controversies and municipal decisions on urban planning and policy that mark each decade. Additionally, the change in activity pattern and how the different types of uses of the pedestrian space are evolving during the historical time frame are studied. Finally, conclusions are made on what can be learnt from the example of Copenhagen in future transformations for other cities.
