To be considered ‘sustainable’, urban plans should have all of the following five principles or elements,
as demonstrated through evidence-based and innovative methodology (including data innovations like
spatial analytics, GIS and Big Data):

1) compactness: avoiding urban sprawl;
2) connectivity: places and locations to demonstrate high connectivity;

3) integration: mixed urban land use;
4) social inclusiveness; and

5) resilience to climate change.

Optimizing urban planning: Walking more can be encouraged by designating more city areas as a
pedestrian/car-free zone. Creating more pedestrian zones will also provide more places for citizens to
engage in and create a sense of community. It is recommended that in creating more pedestrian zones,
Pully designs those spaces for the pedestrian speeds over those of cars and keep in mind community
outcomes during design of such zones and their land-use planning.
