dc.description.abstract | As far as urban planning is concerned, the XXth Century is characterised by a problematic position of large-scale infrastructure networks with regard to urban settlements. Recent planning policy shows that the integration of infrastructure is a top priority in large cities. It has proved difficult to create positive interactions at local level, between urban' and 'hon-urban' elements belonging to the same physical environment. Large-scale infrastructure elements are usually considered as a paradoxical combination of burden and necessity. They are perceived as physical barriers, as generators of low quality suburban areas, although they are essential to the existence and development of the contemporary cities. The disconnection between urbanisation and infrastructure in contemporary cities is the result of a complex process, which will be investigated in this research program. The research program includes three categories of definition of the problem of infrastructure integration: 1. Towards a multidisciplinary approach; 2. Theory and practice of planning for infrastructure: questioning the complexity of contemporary cities; 3. Methodology of the decision making process for an integrated development of infrastructure and public spaces quality achievement. | |
