POLSTRATEGIES GLOBSERVICE consulting engineers llc. provides a framework of an Urban Roads Model
in a supply chain of costumers; traffic planner, urban planner, urban designers, investors, developers and politicians.
In this model, the costumers aim to maximize the profits and minimizing the cost by choosing roads to provide
a high level of efficiency and accessibility for people and goods can be analyzed based on two categories of urban
structural aspects; urban roads' configuration (sociocultural characteristics of spatial elements) and urban places
formation (distribution pattern of contextual events), impact their decisions making. These aspects were shaped in
three factors of roads' attractiveness; accessibility of traffic, centrality of network and density of vehicles. These
factors can be formed by bottomup process that compose the local elements to shape the whole urban roads network
and by topdown process to estimate the density of the vehicles within each local urban context based on the global
distribution of events. The Urban Roads Model reveals that the balance between the bottomup process and topdown
process would be greatly influenced by the approaches of formation and configuration. The power of these two
analogical approaches, in a single framework of Urban Roads Model, to deal with different scales of urban structures,
ranging from the local to the regional, is of obvious attraction to planners and designers. Different approaches,
theories, concepts, methods and techniques have been critically reviewed and applied, aiming to build a smart
geospatial tool to support the analysis of the roads network from spatial and contextual perspective, in view of
socicultural challenges, and with regard to the global competitiveness of land uses within the urban environment.
