Love this installation by @cities_clean & @weglimpse testing changes in people’s heartrates when they see & hear a heavily congested road. 🚗🚗🚗💨 Kids tell me how stressed & anxious they feel on busy streets. One of several reasons for #SchoolStreets - whatever the weather. 👇 – at Manchester, England
Stress testing in Manchester with @cities_clean and @weglimpse - we want school streets!
