Abstract
Experimentation to transform public spaces emerged during the pandemic in response to the need to offer quick and cheap solutions to emerging problems, namely through promoting active urban mobility through pop-up cycle paths, developing citizen collaborative projects to promote the use of public space by children, offering new parklets and terraces to allow safe rest and implementing temporary programs using public space for businesses to remain open (Stevens and Dovey, 2022).
