Expansion of vertical buildings in the central area. Outskirts are located at the bottom of the photo, at the ends. Main avenue of the city (left) is large and have trees. The invisible information´s are: totally orthogonal urban grid (is a planned city), that facilitates the flow, the location and the movement of people. The main avenue does not pass the public transport, this condition divide flows, allowing the central strip that connects the north and south of the city to flow constantly, enabling the most effective traffic. Analyzing the invisible information flows sectorize along with their logistics operation makes us realize the traffic dynamics. Even the public transport not passing through the central route, for the city to have an orthogonal grid that allows the stops are close to this pathway, facilitating access for pedestrians while decentralizing the flow and decongesting the central area. This logistics traffic causes the traffic of the city can operate more efficiently, allowing more peaceful paths.
