Tactical urbanism is an approach to improve your neighbourhood through low cost and temporary changes. This approach is typically imagined and initiated by residents to bring about long-term positive outcomes for the neighbourhood. Tactical urbanism is also commonly referred to as guerrilla urbanism, pop-up urbanism, and D.I.Y. urbanism.
Tactical urbanism uses a wide range of activities that gives residents the ability to shape the future of their neighbourhood. This tool allows residents to test the viability of the solution through a low cost approach, which can then be adapted and turned into permanent solutions.
