As I am not very interested in this topic I have decided to take one of our smaller ideas and develop a new future scenario from it. We started to look at having different modes of transport for our future city as energy usage wouldnt be an issue, we came up with the idea of having small cars that are free and shared by the public within the city. I want to build on this topic of transport but instead of small cars that would use alot of energy and need roads to run on I want to propose that the city centre be a car free zone. By making this area a car free zone the introduction of better public transport would have to be considered. Whether this be the introduction of tram lines through the city or the possibilty of a 24hr undeground railway line. Improving and introducing new bikeways and green areas throughout the walking city would be part of this future vision. I want to start thinking how this scenario would impact on how the streets look, how the architecture would change now that each of the buildings will have a different presence on the pedestrian run streets.
