Resumo

<jats:p> Road space distribution has traditionally been based on the hierarchical classification of streets. In arterials, the majority of space is dedicated to traffic lanes, whereas local streets typically have fewer traffic lanes and more space for parking or sidewalks. Within urban areas, road space is contested between two main types of spaces: corridors of movement, and places for access and standing/stillness/staying. Given the limited availability of urban space, particularly in central areas, deciding how to allocate space for these functions poses a dilemma and requires tradeoffs. Nonetheless, certain areas experience underutilization and inefficiencies in space utilization over time. In this context, we propose a site selection methodology to identify complex zones within a city where different types of users and demands compete for space. These zones present the potential for dynamically allocating road space based on fluctuating demands and policy objectives. This methodology serves as an initial guide for planners to identify zones that require a thorough evaluation of activities and diverse temporal-spatial demands when reallocating road space. We use network centrality, land use indicators, traffic, and public transport dynamics indicators to detect complex zones and apply them to a Lisbon case study. </jats:p>
