The goal of our overall planning of the territory is to achieve the social justice in ecology, economy, and mobility by the physical and internal of the ‘city spine’. In the other word, we hope to provide high-quality and sustainable public spaces, ensure the convenient connections by all modes of transport, activate the local economy, and at the same time, create qualitative distinctiveness and preserve local identity by this design.
Transportation organization is the physical manifestation of the ‘city spine’. By diverting people and vehicles at different elevations, the vehicle circulation and parking lots are mainly placed underground, which not only ensures smooth flow lines and enough parking spaces, but also enables the North Square owns flows with a slow traffic system mainly for pedestrians and bicyclists, becoming an area with a better landscape version.
