dc.description.abstract | The aim of the ring road on the edge of the inner city is to reduce pressure from car traffic in the city centre. Building a road with high car capacity seems to defeat this purpose, as It has been welldocumented that increasing motor capacity leads eventually to an increase in car use. Besides congestion, a car-oriented route carries many other negative factors, noise, air pollution, ugliness and the creation of unpleasant, unsafe surroundings. The road itself would present a huge obstacle to pedestrians and would divide the city further. The challenge is to provide a link between the two ends of the city, in such a way that traffic is actually reduced in the long term and that the route serves as a link rather than a barrier. The central location of this link in an area with relatively high density and close to the city’s inner core, led us to design this link not as a high capacity motor road, but as a multi-modal ‘urban avenue’. | |
