"...the Fused Grid anticipates and channels land intensification and mixed-uses by creating a zone between residential districts that is flexible in possible land uses - which can include schools, parks and commercial. This zone can also accommodate adaptations to future traffic demand by allowing for road redesign and expansion within the existing road allowance.The Fused Grid is a model for laying out neighbourhoods and districts. It combines the geometries of inner city grids and the cul-de-sac of the conventional suburbs. The objective is to retain the best characteristics of each and none of their disadvantages while raising the quality of the neighbourhood environment."
