The Relationship between Highways and Urban Roads in Urbanization
As urbanization speeds up, highways increasingly take on the function of urban roads. However, if the road is not adapted to land function, the road gradation is irrational. The highway cannot meet traffic demands of non-motorized and pedestrian traffic. In view of this problem, this article introduces a new classification system for roads. The system brings together highways and urban roads in function, considers districts and counties as planning unit, and identifies road-construction patterns and the demand for road net planning based on high-density ("dense") and low-density ("sparse") areas.
