PHYSICAL PLANNING AND PUBLIC TRANSPORT

RUIMTELIJKE ORDENING EN OPENBAAR VERVOER

Study on a residential area to be developed in Amsterdam. What will be the consequences of diagonal walk- and cycleways and increased density of housing along a central public transport axis? Priority is given to non motor car traffic. Walk- and cycleways are planned on a 250 meter grid. Public transport uses its own right of way and motor car traffic is separated from other traffic. The use of diagonal path patterns leads to an increase of 19% in public transport patronage while higher housing densities can add another 7%. (Author/TRRL)
