Greenways are managed open spaces that offer improved mobility to pedestrians and cyclists, create new recreational space for city residents, and enhance environmental assets.  A greenway project can transform a neglected creek or drainage channel into a high quality public space that becomes part of the city’s open space network. Designed with accessibility and safety features in mind, greenways can become a place of enjoyment for residents of all ages and genders. The planning process for greenways combines analysis of the hydrological features of the waterway with an assessment of the mobility needs of local residents and non-motorised transport (NMT) users in the city as a whole. The design of a greenway must be integrated with a city’s transport network, especially city wide pedestrian and cycle networks. In addition, the design should take into account nearby public transport services to improve accessibility to the greenway.
