With the publication of 'Manual for Streets' in 2007 and 'Manual for Streets 2: Wider Application of the Principles', published by CIHT in 2010, official recognition was given for the first time to the importance of placemaking in the design of highways and other transport infrastructure, particularly in urban areas.

CIHT is developing a range of guidelines which will be based upon work carried out over the last few years in updating elements of the 1997 publication 'Transport in the Urban Environment' (1997) to assist professionals in implementing 'Manual for Streets'. This work will be grouped under the overall title of Streets and Transport in the Urban Environment.
The documents released under the 'Streets and Transport in the Urban Environment' title are found below. For more info on any of the content of these documents or to find out about future releases, please contact e: technical@ciht.org.uk
