Superblock Street Types

Superblock Street Types is a systematic classification framework within urban street typology that organizes street configurations in superblock-based urban layouts according to their geometric, functional, and accessibility attributes, distinguishing it from conventional street type systems by prioritizing large-scale, low-throughput vehicular circulation and enhanced pedestrian-oriented connectivity.
