In this People & Projects episode of the Streets and People podcast, host Wendy chats with architect Robert Martin,originally from outer Sydney and now based in central Copenhagen. Robert shares his journey from the Blue Mountains to Denmark, with stops in Saudi Arabia and the U.S., and introduces his innovative ‘Mobility Diet’ - a flexible, inclusive way to discuss about how we would like to move through cities.

We explore how different places shape our transport choices, with a focus on how Copenhagen and Paris have advanced cycling and multimodal transport. Robert also reflects on his PhD research, community involvement, and why transport planning must be dynamic and people-centred.

🎧 Whether you're into urban design, transport, or just curious about howyou can build better cities—this one’s for you.
