New Urbanism 
"Giving people many choices for living an urban lifestyle in sustainable, convenient and 
enjoyable places, while providing the solutions to peak oil, global warming, and climate 
change.” – www.newurbanism.org

                       ‐Shift from non‐renewable to renewable resources 
                       ‐Shift from investing in roads to investing in trains 
                       ‐Shift from suburban to dense development

(Irvine, California, USA) 
 First Great Metropolitan Park of 21st Century 

 40 miles south of Los Angeles, California

Great Park 
    Sustainable Transportation 
    The Great Park is designed to promote 
  sustainable means of transportation. The 
 Park is easily accessible by mass transit via 
  the Irvine Station near Marine Way. Those 
 coming by car can park once and spend the 
     day. Once they arrive, visitors have a 
 selection of ways to get around that do not 
   require gasoline or generate pollution. A 
    non‐polluting shuttle system will take 
 visitors to major park attractions. They can 
     also use an orange bike which will be 
available at little to no cost. It is easy to bike 
because the Park’s bike trails mesh with City 
   and regional trail networks. Walkers and 
hikers have a choice of gentle or challenging 
routes. All sections of the park are accessible 
 to all people, regardless of physical ability.
