Abstract
One of Egypt's most worked-on agendas is developing a new enhanced streets network, which directly impacts street users, city residents, and most certainly the economics of the country as a whole. Additionally, street design has an immense impact on developing livable and sustainable cities, since designing them sufficiently means that one-third of the city design is successful, with a tremendous effect on the remainder of the city, especially on already established cities and their residents. The crucial factor is to apply a comprehensive approach in planning or developing them, where all factors involved must be considered, including pedestrians, vehicles, parking slots, etc. This must be achieved without neglecting the important role of public participation in matters of concern. Thus, this study aimed at analyzing one of the newly developed streets in Nasr City, Cairo, to assess its achievement and if it needs enhancement from the public point of view. It was found that the latest development of the Mostafa El-Nahas Axis was favored by the majority of the study sample. However, some enhancements must be conducted on the detail level. For example, the study sample expressed the need for increasing plantations on the street and making it more pedestrian friendly.
