STADENS TRAFIKNAET: ALLMAENNA RAAD FOER PLANERING AV STADENS TRAFINKNAET - TRAAD
These general recommendations deal with the interaction between traffic and surroundings. They start from the legislation's demand for consideration to the general traffic, safety, soundness, beauty and comfort. The general recommendations are intended for application of the building by-laws in urban areas. The investigation work has been directed towards developing planning practices of today by (1) improving the design of the road networks for public transport, pedestrians and cyclists (2) improving the adaption of the road networks to the surroundings from the environmental point of view (3) giving a basis for the shaping of the road networks in the existing built-up areas (4) making it easier for the local authorities to do their own balancing of resources.
