GOALS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE CITY CENTRE WITH SPECIAL REGARD TO TRAFFIC PROBLEMS
The Standing Committee on Traffic Problems of the International Federation for Housing and Planning studies the problem of the aims of development of city centres. It asked members to prepare reports for one or two cities in their country, and also to fill in a questionnaire concerning statistics on centre development in the cities. 16 reports were received and were discussed at a committee meeting in Copenhagen in September 1970. The problem was also discussed at a committee meeting in Belgrade in 1971. The general reported was Mr. Hans B. Barbe, Zurich. Recommendations and conclusions concerning "goals for the development of the city centre" were adopted unanimously by the meeting in Belgrade. A comparison of the statistics of the various city centres has been worked out and may be of help in work with city centre problems in other cities. (A) /TRRL/
