Walkability – or the ability to conveniently, safely, comfortably, and pleasurably walk to everyday needs and amenities – has been increasingly tied to increased health, broadly defined to include not just physical and mental health, but also social, community, environmental and even fiscal health. While the US and other Western countries have begun to make strides to increase walkability and promote healthy placemaking, China continues to push forward car-centric urbanization and along with it rising rates of obesity, diabetes, cancer, and air pollution. Yet China has a huge opportunity - over 50 new cities, each with populations of over 1 million people, will be built in the next 20 years. The question is, will China stick to its auto-oriented, mega scale formula or adopt a human-scaled, pedestrian friendly form that enhances health?

- Outdated/ill-intentioned codes; LDIs
- Too many ministries/departments involved; goals are not in-sync
- Who takes responsibility? Who is in charge of fixing the problem?
- Tearing down historical districts; getting rid of street food/vending; outlawing sidewalk dining
- Everything has to happen yesterday
- The bigger the project, the better
- Short-term thinking overshadows long-term approach
- Lack of awareness and education
- The idea that nothing can be done; complacency. That’s just the way it is.
