Abstract

Tasks, methodology and practical methods of research and design of processes in urban planning are revealed. The specificity of urban problems, which are complex and require consideration of the multidimensionality of solutions, creates difficulties in their study and consideration in the justification of design decisions. Based on the methodology of the systems approach, as well as the approaches that exist in the «study of operations» and which are developed in various fields of science and practice, the article considers special aspects of methodology and methods of research and design processes in urban systems. Attention is focused on problem statement, substantiation of models, their research and comprehension of analysis results.

Regarding the study and design of processes in urban systems, the peculiarities of the approach are revealed in solving the problems of compaction of Lviv — a city where the population density per hectare exceeds all major cities of Ukraine, where the highest building density in the former USSR. According to the author, it is necessary to determine the formation of the urban system of Greater Lviv.

The transport scheme of combination of motor transport, suburban railway connection, city electric transport, air (in particular small aviation) and subway is considered in detail. The transport framework of Lviv should consist of:

  • railway and automobile international transport corridors;
  • ring highways connected to the city by radial connections and transport interchanges at their intersections;
  • a new international station with a high-speed «narrow» track connected to the European railway network;
  • high-speed main railway lines, which will connect with the cities of the supra-regional settlement system;
  • subway; transport interchanges; modern bus stations.

The opinion is expressed that the mechanical annexation of territories, which has already taken place by law, threatens to lead to an even greater aggravation of existing problems and the emergence of new poorly forecasted processes. The issue can be solved by developing the concept of Greater Lviv with the involvement of urban planners, specialized specialists of design and research institutions, as well as experts in this subject area.
