G. Tsouderos and D. Dimelli, "Seeking the best urban structure," in 15th International Conference on Urban Planning, Regional Development and Information Society, 2010, pp. 1245-1248.
Researches that are taking place show that the daily journeys in the urban tissue constitute themain cause of energy consumption and consequent atmospheric pollution creation. Everyeffort for this phenomenon’s confrontation tries to intervene correctively, discouraging theuse of private vehicles and encouraging the use of mass transport means, without however therequired results. The present research tries to investigate the best positions and the relations ofurban functions, so that the daily urban journeys are minimized and simultaneously theresidents needs, are satisfied. Categorizing the economic activities of an area based on theaccess frequency, but also their groupments in the urban area, the research tries to formulatethe urban functions best positions. These positions accessed by mass transport and constantorbit means will ensure the less and smaller possible urban journeys. This way UrbanPlanning tries to solve the problem of urban journeys creation, predefine, up to a point, theposts of departure and destination but also to formulate the ways of urban movements, inorder to achieve the best sustainable development of urban tissue. Thus the search of B.U.S.1consists in the ensurement during Urban Planning of urban elements groups and their arealforms that will lead to the configuration of an Urban structure which will result the minimalpossible energy consumption with the simultaneous minimization of pollutants emissions viathe optimization of daily function. These two goals will be achieved if the Urban tissueshaped by the allocated land uses can ensure the optimal planning for private cars, masstransport means and pedestrians use. This will be achieved when the form of Urban tissue’sstructure incorporates evidently the local and supralocal movement in daily journeys.
