URBAN STRATEGY
Proposed general urban strategy is oriented on development of transport in-
frastructure and shows potential sites for housing developments in close proximity to
transport. They are intermittent and remnant spaces surrounding the intersection of
railways, tram lines and metro. Located in the city center close to the coastline they
represent a big potential for densification and growth of the city within its borders.

Urban strategy map
Main focus on urban strategy:
- to provide spatial links;
- to make use of landmarks to guide pedestrians through the space;
- to reuse and extend existing transport network;
- to transform Estacio de Franca into transport hub of tram/train/metro and
open it in different directions;
- to reate a short link to metro;
- to create various spaces on the transport routes (Figure 35).
