Urban roads have been appeared to be a fizzled investigation of urban arranging. Setting these structures in our urban communities has not helped in diminishing vehicular activity, but rather has
made natural debasement and a risk to inhabitants. Things being what they are, what should be possible? Scene acts the hero. The ChonGae Canal in focal Seoul, Korea is a fabulous illustration. One of my most loved urban activities, it altogether changed a urban expressway into an energetic person on foot zone. Not just did it make a space for the general population, yet it brought back the excellence and estimations of the current water waterway.

Guided by hour-to-hour water levels consistently and the likelihood of flooding, the questioned territorial stones were layered and slanted to energize open cooperation and further bring together the space. As the initial step to a noteworthy redevelopment arrangement for the stream, this rebuilding conveys motivation and drive to this anticipate and sets it up to be a wonderful ordeal.
