URBAN PLANNING

Carfree.com - what would happen if we designed a city to work without any cars? Would anyone want to live in such a city? Does it make social, economic, and esthetic sense? This website is dedicated to the proposition that urban life is not only possible but also better if transport is organised so that private automobiles are not used on the city's streets. [www.aboutistc.org]

Curitiba, Brazil - the city's visionary policies integrate an innovative transit system with land use development to ensure that one supports the other. Curitiba's original master plan for development proposed that the future extension of the city be developed along public transport-based axes radiating from the city's centre. [www3.iclei.org/localstrategies/summary/curitiba2.html] recommended YXC

Easy pass, Brazil - the Transport Integrated System, named ‘easy-pass’ in Franca, Brazil, provides as its main objectives connections between all neighbourhoods and offers equal service to all the population, so that all users of the public transportation system have guaranteed accessibility and the possibility of using two buses while paying only one tariff. [www.aboutistc.org] recommended recommended YXC

O'porto, Portugal - recently, the Municipality of O'porto (Câmara Municipal do Porto - CMP) introduced a new public service; urban and regional planning joined with the implementation of information and communications technology and systems, directly involved in the decision making process.
