We welcome contributions from writers, researchers, professionals, students, and enthusiasts passionate about urban planning, public transit, and city life. If you’d like to share your ideas with our community, here are our guidelines to help you get started.
What We’re Looking For
- Topics: Urban mobility, sustainable transport, pedestrianization, cycling, public transit systems, street design, urban economics, city policy, and innovative solutions from around the world.
- Perspective: Analytical, data-driven, observational, or experience-based. We also welcome opinion pieces if they are backed by reasoning or examples.
Writing Guidelines
- Length: 700–2000 words is ideal, but longer deep-dives are welcome.
- Style: Clear, engaging, and accessible. Avoid heavy jargon — write as if explaining to an informed but curious reader.
- Evidence: Cite data, reports, or studies when making claims. Provide links to official or reliable sources.
- Originality: Submissions must be original and not previously published elsewhere.
- Tone: Respectful, thoughtful, and constructive.
Formatting

- Include images, charts, or maps if they add value (only if you have the rights to share them).
- Suggest a short title (without colons if possible).
- Provide a 2–3 sentence author bio with links (LinkedIn, Twitter, or personal website).
Process
- Email article: Share your draft in Google Docs or Markdown to streetfrontiercontact@gmail.com.
- Edits: We may suggest edits for clarity, flow, or accuracy.
- Publication: Your article will be published with your byline and bio.
What You Get
- Opportunity to shape discussions on sustainable cities.
- Visibility among an audience interested in urban planning and transit.
- A byline and bio link to your own work.
