What It Does​

3DStreet takes a Streetmix or StreetPlan cross-section and turns it into a fully rendered 3D street scene — complete with cyclists, pedestrians, vehicles, trees, and buildings. It makes your street redesign feel real.

How to Use It​

Step 1: Create Your Design in Streetmix​

Design your street cross-section in Streetmix first.

Step 2: Import into 3DStreet​

Open 3dstreet.com, paste your Streetmix URL, and watch your 2D design become a 3D scene.

Step 3: Customise​

  • Add buildings, people, and vehicles
  • Change the time of day (lighting)
  • Adjust camera angles for the best presentation view
  • Overlay real-world context using Google 3D Tiles

Step 4: Present​

Export images or screen-record a walkthrough for council presentations, social media, or club discussions.

Why This Matters for She Cycles​

A 3D visualisation of a redesigned street is incredibly persuasive. When a councillor or RWA president can see a photorealistic image of their street with protected bike lanes, trees, and wide sidewalks, the conversation changes from "is this possible?" to "when can we start?"
