Abstract
The present invention relates to the urban roadway system and accompanying underground railway system, which provide the efficient use of limited constructible areas of the congested cities, and also relates to the traffic flow control system capable of the effective control of vehicular movements through the roadways. In the whole or partial areas of a city, the roadway network is constructed and connected in the honeycomb-like net structure. Compared with a typical tetragonal city, the hexagonal city of the present invention can reduce 22% of road extent, 63% of road area and 30% of constructible area in total, and the traffic flow can be improved enormously. The present invention also proves that the hexagonal roadway system enables vehicles to move in average 75% less time without meeting stop-signals by the synchronized signal system for traffic flow controls.

9. The hexagonal roadway system of the urban areas of a city comprising:
-
a plurality of intersections each being connected normally with three adjacent intersections of an identical kind in different directions through the respective sections of the inter-block roads dividing every unit-block and being overground, single-leveled and double-sided; a plurality of orthogonal roads being formed by connecting the respective central parts of adjacent unit-blocks one another and intersecting the corresponding said inter-block roads; a plurality of circular roads being arranged in appropriate mutual intervals and intersecting every said orthogonal road inside each said unit-block; and a traffic control system capable of centralized control over said inter-block roads. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12)
