“…Data such as the settlement pattern, the relations between buildings and streets, and the integration of open and closed spaces reflect the social structure of the area (Hillier, 1996). One of the most important properties of the method is that it can visually show how newly designed spatial models work, compare the old and the new, and to some extent, predict future problems in small or large scale designing and planning studies (Kubat, 2015;Günaydın & Yücekaya, 2020a). On the other hand, criticisms of the space syntax methodology are summarized as follows (Kubat, 2015):…”

“…In the space syntax method, integration and connectivity values are evaluated. The intelligibility of a space expresses the relationship between its connection and integration values (Günaydın & Yücekaya, 2020a). The intelligibility of a space is related with the amount of connection and integration of the system, and the formal perception of the space can be explained by the correlation between these parameters (Tanrıverdi Kaya, 2020).…”

“…Therefore, street network with high integration value also has high accessibility. Günaydın & Yücekaya (2020a) evaluated accessibility through the current and proposed design of the campus in a sustainable transportation model review. Öztürk Hacar et al, (2020) examined the relationship between pedestrian density and space syntax measurements by comparing the current and the master plan of the campus.…”

Designing inclusive cities by creating accessible neighborhoods in cities is one of the top agendas in urban planning and design. Therefore, it is important to examine settlements morphology to find out functional contributions to urban design. In this study, the aim is to find street characteristics that support accessibility by comparing street network of current and zoning plan in the neighborhood. The study was carried out in the Esentepe Neighborhood, which is far away from the city center of Çankırı. The fact that the neighborhood is one of the directions of urban development and is located in an area with low accessibility throughout the city requires the development of this area. The study area was evaluated by the space syntax method. The study was designed in three stages. First, the spatial accessibility of the street network in the Esentepe Neighborhood in its current state was analyzed by creating axial maps. Secondly, integration and connection maps were created to evaluate the accessibility of the street network based on the future development plan of the Esentepe Neighborhood. Finally, the current and master plan of the neighborhood was compared to understand the characteristic of accessible street network in the neighborhood. The study results revealed that integration and connectivity values increased compared to the current plan. The creation of simple, interconnected and intersected axes placed in a certain range increased accessibility of area. The long and continuous central axis providing access to the circular central area and the axes connected to this line have the highest integration value in the neighborhood. Space syntax will be a guiding tool on issues such as the selection, design and development of settlements in city plans. The transportation system, which promotes use of spaces around the residence in settlements planned far from cities, contributes to the evaluation of the social interaction areas for residents. The research develops a proposal method in terms of evaluating the future development of neighborhoods for creating a sustainable transportation system.

“…The quantitative spatial analysis method in spatial syntax has been used for a wide range of applications in the field of urban traffic [24,25]. Dario Esposito et al [26] studied the relationship between the spatial structure of an urban environment and the movement patterns of pedestrians using spatial syntax and how the field of perception of agents impacts pedestrians' route choice.…”

Modelling the Coupling Relationship between Urban Road Spatial Structure and Traffic Flow

et al. 2023

In order to promote the sustainable development of urban traffic systems, improve the accuracy of traffic system analysis in the urban planning stage and reduce the possibility of traffic congestion in the operation stage of road networks, the coupling relationship and evolution mechanism between urban road spatial structure and traffic flow were studied, and a model of the relationship between the metrics was established in this study based on real road network and traffic flow data. First, the road spatial structure model of the study area was established from the perspective of road space, and the spatial syntax method was applied to verify the rationality of the spatial structure of the road network. Secondly, the initial OD matrix was determined by OD backpropagation based on the measured traffic flow data. Thirdly, the coupling rule between the spatial structure and the traffic flow of the road network was explored by loading the increment in the OD matrix to the initial OD matrix step by step based on a simulation experiment. Finally, the relationship between the degree of integration of the spatial syntactic feature parameter and the saturation of the traffic flow feature parameter was modelled on the basis of experimental results and verified by an example. This research shows that the spatial structure of urban roads has a significant impact on the characterisation of the traffic flow distribution of road networks, and a strong correlation can be found between the integration degree and saturation degree. An optimal fit, which can be used as a reference for the design of road spatial structure, was explored in this research.
