“…Arguments in favour of urban corridor planning as a sustainable concept emphasise the integral planning of the transport system and the surrounding land and the spatial, traffic, economic and institutional levels of the corridor. The integral approach, inherent in corridor planning, ensures a functional synergy of transport and other uses, which provides additional development value for the city [20].…”

“…The purpose of urban corridor planning is simultaneous multidisciplinary planning, whether it is the planning of a new corridor or the reconstruction of an existing one. Corridors can become the axes of urbanisation, depending on their size, influence and importance [18][19][20]. When building new corridors or revitalising existing corridors within urbanised areas, it is necessary to consider their environmental, social and economic sustainability.…”

Climate change and accelerated development that threaten the survival of humankind require an urgent review of planning approaches to achieve sustainable development, including transport systems, since the quantity of motorised traffic and GHG emissions is increasing yearly. Urban planning of post-industrial cities, the digital age, climate change—all this requires that urban planning is not only the planning of settlements where residents will meet their functional needs, but also for cities to be leaders in the fight against climate change. The question arises as to which planning approach is the most suitable for planning sustainable cities in the 21st century. After a literature review and research of the authors, urban corridor planning is suggested as one of the possible planning strategies. When planning new or revitalising existing intra-city corridors within urban areas, to take into account their spatial, environmental, social and economic sustainability is necessary. After an analysis, indicators of urban corridor planning were extracted, and the article highlights the advantages and priorities. The contribution of the article is in determining the ten basic principles of urban corridor planning. It is concluded that implementation of urban corridor planning principles in the planning of intra-city corridors achieves the result of urban sustainability.

“…For the purposes of this article, the area of railway corridors in cities was determined as follows. They were structurally divided into three types of space (Figure 2): space required for infrastructural traffic functioning, space adjacent to abandoned railways due to railway technology advancement or abandoned due to industrial relocation and joint space to rail reached or may be affected by railway influences (spatial, traffic, safety, sensory) [21].…”

Railway Corridors in Croatian Cities as Factors of Sustainable Spatial and Cultural Development

Transport and mobility in cities are important factors in the sustainability of the urbanized world. This article investigates one type of intra-urban transport: railway transport and the surrounding areas along the railway, i.e., whether railway corridors can be a factor in the sustainable development of cities in the 21st century. The aim of the article is to determine specific characteristics of railway corridors and identify problems and cultural-historical specifics related to the industrial cultural heritage of the railway. The article examines the importance of an integrated approach to the planning of railway corridors and emphasizes the importance of multicriteria analyses in the decision-making process for corridor areas. As a case study, the city of Osijek is selected because in the past the railway strongly influenced its economical and urban development. Concretization and specification methods applied to the city of Osijek prove that railway corridors can become factors of the sustainable development of cities. The article proves that railway corridors have the potential to transform sustainable urban development because they pass through central, often historical, city areas, they occupy large surfaces and have a long linear spatial continuity. The scientific contribution of the article is the identification and systematization of the contribution of the transformation of railway corridors to the sustainable development of cities.
