One answer to that question is Shared Space. Now that's a shift in our value system that I could seriously get behind.

I get the psychology of that, and see how it works. My background in developmental services, though, and the fact that I have a child who is hearing impaired, makes me question how well it would work for those among us who require a little more predictability in the surroundings as well as some distinct kinds of barriers and signals in order to navigate city streets. Anyone here who can put my fears at rest on that score? Have we got a good example of how this would work for everyone, in the most inclusive sense of the word?
