HARMONY OF COEXISTENCE OF PEOPLE AND RIVER EKOSYSTEMS

Abstract

The emergence of towns is facilitated by rivers, which become the main urban vector of development of the city and its «circulatory system». The interplay between the city and the river is one of the most important issues in urban planning. Urban space should be comfortable for people, safe, lively, environmentally friendly. Unfortunately, modern cities are moving further and further away from these human-centered categories. The rapid development of motor transport is displacing human space in cities, squeezing and squeezing people. Excessive car dominance is obvious and general. Motorways are laid directly along coastal areas, which contributes to the degradation of river ecosystems and worsens living conditions in cities. To win back the coastal areas by car and create a public space here is one of the important tasks of designers, urban planners and architects today. Restoring dying river ecosystems is perhaps the most important task of conscious citizens in all parts of the world.
