#1 MOBILITY

Mobility strategies in a situation connected to a system like metro, train or light rail is to develop a street structure leading to the access / departure point. A pedestrian travel circle stretches out to 5 min of walking (approx 400 mtrs), while traveling by bike stretches out to around 1000-1500 mtrs.















With densification strategies to limit building activity to surrounding access-points one save land and travel time. Developing street-structures for people (instead of cars) with shortcuts and direction towards access-points increases accessibility.
