The End of the Road

This is the last post I will be able to put up but I am quite conflicted on what to conclude. I feel as if I have explored many ideas but not come to a formal conclusion about any particular topic. This blog helped in getting me to think about streets and road networks (outside of work) from a different perspective.

I can see that the streets and roads we build do shape our communities and give it some character. I feel as if I have only touched on this topic and not been able to fully explore it all. Time of course is the limiting factor but also direction. I was unable to find any formal research on connecting road networks to the human environment but that doesn’t mean there isn’t anything out there.

Regardless, there is no doubt that the streets and roads we use everyday do play a major role in our lives. They help move the city around but also bring us home. If anything, I know this blog helped in making me appreciate this city more and all the effort that went into putting it together!

I hope you enjoyed reading this as much as I have enjoyed writing it!

Thank you
