Desire paths

People defining how they use their environment - design by ourselves - rather than being designed for us.




"This really needs to be paved - but it won't be. The buildings in the left background are the shops. The planners would have us walk along the path to the right and under the road through a dark tunnel.

It would be far too dangerous to allow people to cross the road here and far too expensive to install a pedestrian crossing and so folk have to walk through the mud on wet days and brave the traffic because planners think of people in cars."
