As the driving force of the Lab, all Lab Fellows are expected to participate actively during the lab period from March to July.

Powered by their community partner, fellows will also work closely with a group of Kaifong (the “Kaifong Think Tank”) as an integral part of the ethnographic data collection process. The Lab aims to understand citizens’ street experience, imagine possibilities for a more walkable neighborhood, and come up with evidence-based suggestions for pedestrian-first street design and policies.
Responsibilities of Lab Fellows include:
- Field Research Phase (mid-March to mid-April)
- Prototyping Phase (mid-April to mid-July)
Interest parties or individual are welcome to work as a team with engineers from Transport Department and passionate citizens to explore pedestrian-first street design and policies.
