The Minecraft Street Builders project aimed to encourage highway engineers to engage with the diverse communities they designed for and raise awareness among young people about highway engineering.
Sustrans and BlockBuilders upskilled 15-20 highway engineers from three London boroughs in designing collaboratively for diversity and using Minecraft for engagement.
The engineers then delivered interactive workshops for 180 students from three secondary schools, who considered the needs of different users and designed their dream local streets using Minecraft. The students had the opportunity to showcase their ideas to the school community and provide input into live projects being delivered by the borough engineers.
