The Concept of WalkabilityWalkability is the idea that
cities should be pedestrian areas
Roads become new, safe areas for walking
It reduces noise and air pollution
It helps preserve the environment
It gives the population the opportunity to exercise, leading to healthier people

Examples of WalkabilityChina’s newest city addition will be
built completely from the ground up, and will entirely free of vehicles
It will house approximately 80,000 people in total
It will be possible to walk the entire cityFrom the centre to the extremity of the
city will take 10 minutes to walkIt will be energy efficient and produce
less waste

HyperdensityHyperdensity is the idea that cities should be built vertically to conserve ground space
These new constructs can be connected by walkways and bridges
The resulting free ground space can be made into pleasant areas for enjoyment

by MAD Architects, is a futuristic city design reminiscent of water and mountains
It consists of mixed-use buildings, with public areas and living accommodation
