Transportation directly co-relates to the city in terms of a lifeline, like a VEIN. Without it the city's functioning has a major impact, In todays world transportation links are the most important urban system design challenges which directly lead to conceiving of an image of an area and it gives us b better understanding of the area and its surroundings. These links are a dominant feature of the landscape and contribute a whole lot more to the city not just as a civic entity but as a destination. they serve as magnet for the economic activities. ![google image of dadar area][1] the role of existing physical components are evident in the nature of the built form taken by the diverse functions and its multi-dimensional aspect integrated within the urban surroundings.
