Abstract

Common principles and rules for urban development have almost never existed. The way (in a geometric sense) a settlement should be depends on many disparate factors. The landscape component, transport factor, and resource factor play a role. When there are natural barriers (forests, mountains), it has long been much more convenient for people to arrange their home in flatter part. The presence of rivers has always attracted residents – it is both a source of food and an important transport hub where there is always a possibility to be hired. Mining areas were built around the source of resources and, of course, employment. Almost never has urbanization been based on the principle of transport planning. Such cases are isolated and only confirm the general trend. Urban infrastructure is a dynamically developing and changing object. The extensive development path involves expanding the existing boundaries of the urban agglomeration, i.e., developing “in breadth”. Intensive, in its essence, is the use of technological progress, the improvement of existing facilities, the use of technical progress for development. The extensive method may be less effective, but sometimes it is one of the important areas of development, without which further intensive development cannot carry on. One of the most pressing problems that can be partially solved using an extensive method of city development is the problem of congestion of the transport system. The expansion of the city implies the expansion of roadways, and as a result, a reduction in the load and distribution of traffic flows on the road network. Our paper focuses on these issues and studies them thoroughly.
