Road, Time, Space and City

Abstract

A road traverses the land, composes cities, and connects buildings. It exists at various scales, bringing to life the sensory effects of different speeds. A road reconciles public space, landscape, infrastructure, and the city. Through analyzing classical urban planning cases, this article explores the relevance of roads as an infrastructure, to urban development, to urban landscape, and to urban image.
