This lecture introduces the circulation plan as a tool to manage traffic flows across all modes of transportation, addressing issues such as road capacity, mobility demand, congestion levels, and the need for multimodal solutions. It covers the objectives of circulation planning, the hierarchy of road networks, administrative and functional hierarchies, traffic diagnosis, and constraints faced in urban planning. Using the example of Ga West's Circulation Plan in Accra, the lecture explores traffic structure, challenges, and the concept of a multimodal approach. The instructor emphasizes the importance of integrating transportation and urban planning to optimize infrastructure usage and enhance accessibility.
