| Summary: |
| Main city stations of public transport represent focus points in a settlement
and they are the travelling starting points of tourists and visitors. There are knots of
different traffic aspects on those locations. The first impression of a place, especially
when it comes to urban structures, is formed exactly in these places of gathering of a
large number of people who use the collective intercity, and then the city public
transport. The quality of the immediate surroundings affects the first impression of the
city and thus contributes to the character of the settlement's image. Surroundings are
shaped by many factors of the built and natural environment, such as urban elements
and details, architecture, transport and information infrastructure, natural elements and
many others. Thoughtful orchestration of all elements increases the accessibility and
functionality of space, at the same time creating a harmonious and ambient environment
that, for many people, represents the first contact with the city.
With its position and hierarchy, in the sense of economy and politics, Novi Sad caused
people of different ages and demands to gravitate towards it, where a large number of
periodical migrations mostly went through bus and railroad traffic. This very fact
requires the necessity of planned design and shaping of the area around these important
infrastructure facilities, as well as a thoughtful construction of connections with the rest
of the city, especially when it comes to traffic crossroads and junctions of different types
of transport. In this paper, urban parameters of traffic, purpose of areas, spaces for
socialization, content and ambience of the traffic objects surroundings are analyzed and
valorised. The conclusion is that they are well planned, but not functionally organized
enough and that they represent potential places for development. |
