Abstract
In this research project the co-authors bring up a most serious problem, that is, biosphere compatibility of urban space planning; this problem is to be solved though development of an urban environment which is barrier free for any urban transport; the solution also contemplates the availability of urban transport routes free from any traffic jams. The coauthors consider different techniques that serve to develop comfortable transport links. A comfortable transportation network boosts the sustainability of any urban economy. The co-authors analyze the following trends in sustainable road building: top priority development of public transport networks, construction of public transport hubs, broadened road paving and bus lanes, and replacement of diesel-fuelled vehicles by electric buses. In this work, the co-authors analyze the findings of an opinion poll on transportation priorities expressed by Moscow residents. Different means of public transport are analyzed in the work, namely, electric buses are compared to trolley-buses and diesel-fuelled vehicles.
Highlights
One of the main tasks of modern urbanistics is the development of models of such a transport system which would satisfy the needs of a modern megalopolis which extended its infrastructure to huge territories
Traffic delays in rush hours have long been a global urban problem that forces urban residents to switch to bicycles, to walk or to rely on electric cars or buses
The co-authors have analyzed particular actions aimed at the reorganization of transport links in the Russian capital
Summary
One of the main tasks of modern urbanistics is the development of models of such a transport system which would satisfy the needs of a modern megalopolis which extended its infrastructure to huge territories. The synthesis of the experience, accumulated by municipal authorities in the sphere of road construction as well as the creation of favorable and convenient network of transport connection is of great importance. Biosphere compatibility comprises a rational public transport network. Models of future smart cities have their built environments stretched along major transportation routes. A rational transport network, developed in compliance with the principles of green urban design, ensures quick access to various urban districts, and, on the other hand, this network is designated to reduce pressure exerted on the Earth’s shells within city limits, and this is a challenging task.
