Abstract: Amongst the most popular alternatives to the current car-dominant planning model to have emerged in recent times is the 15-minute City (15mC). The 15mC prioritises the notion of local living. It seeks to address the pressing challenges of urban life by promoting lifestyles largely independent of motorised travel modes by focusing on active mobility and proximity to essential amenities. Despite the popularity of this concept, a knowledge gap exists regarding the diverse range of international practical definitions, strategies, instruments, and implementation experiences, as well as the requirements for, and challenges involved in, operationalising the 15mC and related concepts.
