The invention relates to a free-standing, overhead metal structure of the suspension bridge type, in which the main platform is designed over three levels. The upper level is intended for the passage of motor vehicles. The intermediate level is intended for the transportation, transmission and distribution of all existing public utilities, as well as other possible services. The lower level is intended for an urban public transport system. Owing to its free-standing overhead design, the system of the invention can be built in cities following the layout of existing roads.

The invention relates to transport and logistics systems of large cities, and may be used in construction of cities with population of over five hundred thousand people. The technical result of the proposed solution is to optimize the urban transport and logistics system, eliminate traffic congestions and ensure rapid movement to any point in the city. The urban transport and logistics system includes the first ground level for road and rail freight transport, the second level of pipeline and technical communications, the third level of passenger transport, the fourth pedestrian level, each level being located one above the other, and they are connected with each other and with residential and non-residential buildings by vertical staircase-elevator modules.

Continuous Flow City is a new type of urban design that combines Ondulating and Linear Highways in a way that allows the continuos flow of traffic. This urban design can be used to build new cities or expand existing ones. The Ondulating Highways intersect perpendiculary at different levels with Linear Highways connected by interchanges. The Ondulanting Highways are parallel and inverted with respect to the previous one never crossing each other, creating the shape of the human eye. The resulting oculiform spaces in between the Ondulating Highways can be used for residential, commercial, agriculture, recreational, etc. or industrial areas. This highway system is repeated in a modular form, infinitively, throughout the whole development, resulting in a continuous flow highway system. This urban design reduces travel time and accidents by eliminating the need for intersections, traffic lights, stop signs, and other obstructions and allowing drivers to reach a destination without stopping.

The combination parking structure, roadway and train station is a commuter-based system for relieving traffic congestion. The combination parking structure, roadway and train station includes a parking structure having a plurality of levels, at least one roadway, and a train station within the parking structure. A primary entry ramp branches from the at least one roadway, and a plurality of secondary entry ramps each branch from the primary entry ramp. Each secondary entry ramp connects with, and leads into, a corresponding one of the plurality of levels of the parking structure. Similarly, a primary exit ramp feeds into the at least one roadway, and a plurality of secondary exit ramps each connects with, and leads from, a corresponding one of the plurality of levels of the parking structure and feeds into the primary exit ramp. An internal portion of a set of train tracks is located within the parking structure.

An overpass structure with vertical interchange arrangement for crossroads includes a transverse roadway at a bottom level, a pedestrian walkway in the middle level and a longitudinal road bridge at an upper level. The vehicle roadways on and under the bridge are connected by two ramp units. The pedestrian walkway is a pedestrian platform with an interchange platform provided on top. The interchange platform is located between and connected to two roadways of opposite directions on the longitudinal road bridge in the upper level. The leftmost lane along a forward moving direction of vehicle on the bridge in the longitudinal road bridge is defined as a universal lane of the longitudinal road bridge. The rightmost lane along a forward moving direction of vehicle under the bridge in the transverse roadway is defined as a universal lane of the transverse roadway. The interchange platform is connected to four universal lanes.

A multifunctional and multi-story crossroad for intensive land use relates to urban road construction engineering and solves technical problems of urban traffic jams through space division and streamlined design, without occupying the land outside the road. It achieves: operating smoothly without red lights, large vehicle-free intersection space on the ground, large parking areas, long side of the road border between the parking area and roads, bicycle exclusive system. Technical elements include: learning from building design, multi-story crossroad, Turning Right and Looping Back technique, exclusive bikeway interlayer, adding a lane, and large steps above ramp of a tunnel. It is a combination of a smoothly flowing crossroad technique, viaduct and the tunnel. The main purposes are: for new construction and renovation of crossroad in congested cities, and development of city fast lanes, elevated roads and tunnels.
