, and the Alderman responsible for transport and mobility policy.
He took over the portfolio and immediately set about trying to make Ghent a more beautiful, peaceful city.
As I can confirm from having visited, he really succeeded! But not without a lot of difficulty, even including death threats.
Today’s episode is a masterclass in the art of transport changemaking: the focus on experimentation, clear strategy and the need for urgency.

Everyone agrees we need more sustainable transport but no-one has enough money to pay for it.
Could ‘land value capture’ be the answer? This is the approach where by transport lines are funded through the increases in the land value that the stations stimulate.

In today’s episode he tells me how it works; but only after a fascinating discussion on the “Seven Deadly Wins” for making a city succeed.
