The Development of Underground Construction as a Way to Improve the Organization of Traffic

Abstract

Currently, there’s a problem with the big population on the earth’s surface. This has an extremely negative impact on the transport network of cities and the overall comfort of living. There is a problem to reach in the morning for work, and in the evening home, roads are overloaded with transport in rush hours. In some cities, traffic jams are a constant problem. The construction of intercepting parking facilities near the metro, multi-level roads and other elements of transport infrastructure only lead to temporary improvement. The best solution for this problem is urbanization of the underground space. The purpose of the research was to examine the efficiency of reconstruction of underground structures for new facilities. The study showed that reconstruction of existing underground structures for new appliance is more quick and cheap. In our days there’re some objects, which have been restored and now they are amusement parks, shopping centers, etc. Were described the plans for future renovations, which will reduce the density of urban development on the surface of the earth and to repurpose unused underground structures. It was also noted that due to lack of existing underground structures new constructions are often used. There were given some recommendations of the organization and development of the underground space.
