A simple and technically easily implementable intervention is to run a dedicated City Data Catalogue for people to find information easily.

The trees are able to absorb huge quantities of dust and noise. In summer, they could offer pleasant shade, cooling down all the overheated town. They could produce tons of oxygen where there…

We propose a very simple and specific intervention in the Radlinskeho street. Due to cars parked along the roadside, the sidewalk is so narrow that whenever two or more pedestrians walk in opposite directions, one has to step over the curb onto a trampled path that has completely destroyed the grass there. The urban intervention would consist of covering this particular part of…
