Ideas about urban streets and beautification of street spaces, e.g. Fellsm\u00fali, H\u00e1aleitisbraut and B\u00fasta\u00f0avegur were well received by residents and stakeholders in the public consultation process at the beginning of the neighborhood planning work. According to the work proposals, urban streets will be key streets within each neighborhood, not least with regard to connections to the main retail and service areas within the neighborhood and connections to other neighborhoods.<\/p>\n
The word urban street in a neighborhood plan refers to a public space where houses, streets and open spaces form an unbroken whole, but conditions can be very different between neighborhoods. Urban streets should be given priority when it comes to redesigning and beautifying neighborhoods. Emphasis is placed on promoting environmentally friendly modes of transport on urban streets and that access is ensured for all, regardless of mobility. They often have neighborhood centers with a variety of local services, and neighborhood squares and public spaces are usually designed in connection with urban streets. Temporary activities, such as food trucks and\/or market sales, will be allowed on urban streets.<\/p>\n

H\u00e1aleiti-M\u00falar: <\/b>An urban street by H\u00e1aleitisbraut is assumed, as H\u00e1aleitisbraut is especially important due to its central location and extensive street space. Efforts will be made to create a green and environmentally friendly setting. See more in the section Green focus<\/span>.<\/b><\/p>\n
Leiti-Ger\u00f0i:<\/b> H\u00e1aleitisbraut and Listabraut will be the urban streets of the neighborhood, in addition to which the neighborhood is adjacent to two other urban streets; B\u00fasta\u00f0avegur and Grens\u00e1svegur.<\/b><\/p>\n
B\u00fasta\u00f0a- og Sm\u00e1\u00edb\u00fa\u00f0ahverfi: <\/b>Four urban streets are defined in the neighborhood. Sogavegur and R\u00e9ttarholtsvegur are within the neighborhood, while B\u00fasta\u00f0avegur and Grens\u00e1svegur are on the periphery.<\/p>\n
Fossvogshverfi-Gr\u00f3fir:<\/b> B\u00fasta\u00f0avegur will be the only urban street in the neighborhood and a lot of effort will be put into creating both a safe and environmentally friendly setting for everyone who will travel through there.<\/p>\n
It is expected that these urban streets, B\u00fasta\u00f0avegur in particular, between B\u00fasta\u00f0akirkja and Gr\u00edmsb\u00e6r, will be a shot in the arm for the neighborhoods and the district as a whole.<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.9.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” collapsed=”off”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.9.2″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.2″ _module_preset=”default”]<\/p>\n
The urban street B\u00fasta\u00f0avegur<\/b><\/p>\n
B\u00fasta\u00f0avegur was especially important to the residents in the public consultation process at the beginning of the neighborhood planning work, not least because of the many children who cross it daily for school, sports and leisure activities. Various proposals were discussed, such as partially putting the road in an underground tunnel, building underpasses or bridges, or significantly reducing traffic on this important transport route that entire neighborhoods use to get to and from work!<\/p>\n
The work proposals that the neighborhood planning consultants present here on B\u00fasta\u00f0avegur are part of an ongoing public consultation with residents. They aim to turn the street into an urban street that will be a traffic route for all modes of transport. There, residential areas, shops, services and business activities are to be integrated with a strong neighborhood center in Gr\u00edmsb\u00e6r. At the same time, the negative environmental impact of the street should be reduced, lighting should be improved, traffic speeds should be reduced to 40 km per hour and traffic safety in general should be increased, i.a. with greatly improved connections between neighborhoods and safe transport for both pedestrians and cyclists. Special consideration will be paid to children, not least for school and leisure activities, as well as senior citizens, the visually impaired and people with reduced mobility.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Street trees and parking pockets should give the street a beautiful overall look and a particular focus will be on improving air quality and acoustics to promote general public health and increase the quality of life of the residents. Increased vegetation will provide more shelter, demarcate space and promote the diversity of ecosystems, as well as beautifying the environment.

Various infrastructure will be built along the urban streets that can support environmentally friendly means of transport. Drop-off centers with underground containers will be located along urban streets, close to neighborhood centers, so that they are within easy walking distance and in areas that many people have regular errands. Emphasis will also be placed on installing charging stations and parking spaces for shared cars on the urban streets.<\/p>\n

In the work proposals emphasis is placed on establishing connections across the arterial roads and traffic streets that surround the district, on the one hand as a whole and on the other hand the four district sections, which is in line with suggestions from the public consultation with residents and stakeholders. The safety of road users is paramount and it is important to establish easy and safe connections over these roads for both pedestrian and bicycle traffic, such as with pedestrian and bicycle bridges, tunnels and light-controlled pedestrian crossings and intersections.<\/p>\n
B\u00fasta\u00f0a- og Sm\u00e1\u00edb\u00fa\u00f0ahverfi: <\/b>In parallel with the transformation of B\u00fasta\u00f0avegur to an urban street, the aim is to improve connections to Gr\u00edmsb\u00e6r between the Fossvogshverfi and B\u00fasta\u00f0a- og Sm\u00e1\u00edb\u00fa\u00f0ahverfi neighborhoods, where safe transport for pedestrians and cyclists should be paramount. Special consideration should be given to children, for example for school and leisure activities, as well as senior citizens, the visually impaired and people with reduced mobility. The intention is to create a large square in front of the neighborhood center, which is to stretch over B\u00fasta\u00f0avegur and form sunny seating and garden spaces on the north side of the street. Furthermore, the neighborhood plan includes ideas for connections to Kringlan, Leiti and Ger\u00f0i, as well as connections to Elli\u00f0a\u00e1rdalur, to increase traffic safety.<\/p>\n
\n
H\u00e1aleiti-M\u00falar:<\/b> The neighborhood is bounded by Su\u00f0urlandsbraut to the north, Grens\u00e1svegur to the east, Miklabraut to the south and Kringlum\u00fdrarbraut to the west and it is considered important to establish easy and safe connections across these roads for both pedestrians and cyclists. This can be done in various ways, such as with pedestrian and bicycle bridges and light-controlled pedestrian crossings.<\/p>\n
Leiti-Ger\u00f0i: <\/b>The settlements in Leiti and Ger\u00f0i are also bounded by arterial roads on every side; Miklabraut to the north, Grens\u00e1svegur to the east, B\u00fasta\u00f0avegur to the south and Kringlum\u00fdrarbraut to the west. These lanes also need to be provided with easy and safe connections for pedestrians and cyclists with both pedestrian and bicycle bridges, and light-controlled pedestrian crossings, as stated in the work proposals of the neighborhood plan, and it is emphasized that where such connections cross an urban street, an environmentally friendly setting should be provided.<\/p>\n
Fossvogshverfi:<\/b> Emphasis is placed on reducing the negative environmental impact of the large traffic routes that divide the district. These are connections to B\u00fasta\u00f0a- og Sm\u00e1\u00edb\u00fa\u00f0ahverfi, over to \u00d6skjuhl\u00ed\u00f0, east to Elli\u00f0a\u00e1rdalur and south to K\u00f3pavogur. Furthermore, emphasis is placed on connecting the neighborhood better with other neighborhoods in the district with an improved walking and cycling path system, not least for school and leisure activities. There are also plans to connect access to a new swimming pool in the valley to the walking and cycling path system of the neighborhood and thus to the district as a whole.<\/p>\n

In recent years, cycling has been increasing rapidly in Reykjav\u00edk in parallel with the systematic development of infrastructure. The location of the main walking and cycling paths of H\u00e1leiti-B\u00fasta\u00f0ir is indicated on the Transport policy map.<\/span> It is mostly based on the City of Reykjav\u00edk’s Bicycling Plan 2021-2025 and looks at the paths being connected to the paths of the adjacent districts.<\/p>\n
The work proposals focus on promoting increased safety for pedestrians and cyclists by improving both walking and cycling paths within and between neighborhoods, as called for in the public consultation process with residents and stakeholders. Improvements should also be made to cycling and walking paths between nearby districts where there are service areas that residents visit, e.g. Kringlan and Skeifan, as well as green areas such as Laugardalur, Elli\u00f0a\u00e1rdalur and \u00d6skjuhl\u00ed\u00f0. These goals will be achieved by:<\/p>\n
\n
<\/span>Pedestrian and bicycle connections from Vegm\u00fali over Su\u00f0urlandsbraut to Laugardalur.\n<\/li>\n
<\/span>Walking path from the green area between H\u00e1aleiti and S\u00ed\u00f0um\u00fali via Selm\u00fali to Su\u00f0urlandsbraut where a walking and cycling path to Laugardalur is planned.\n<\/li>\n
<\/span>Pedestrian and bicycle bridge over Kringlum\u00fdrarbraut to the shopping and service center at Skipholt.\n<\/li>\n
<\/span>Pedestrian and bicycle connection from M\u00falahverfi to Skeifa.\n<\/li>\n
<\/span>Hiking and cycling paths between H\u00e1aleiti and M\u00fali and Leiti and Ger\u00f0i, on the one hand via an underpass and on the other hand via a bridge.\n<\/li>\n
<\/span>There will also be walking and cycling paths to all adjacent districts via light-controlled intersections.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The proposals for the terms of the neighborhood plan also state that the number and arrangement of bicycle parking spaces at schools, shops, services and other commercial premises shall be according to the current car and bicycle parking policy of Reykjav\u00edk<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

uHeavily-trafficked streets intersect the neighborhoods and are around them. In the consultation process with residents and stakeholders, the guiding principle has been that it is important to improve the districts\u2019 connections and that increased safety is a key factor for society. The goal of the neighbourhood plan is to find solutions that increase the safety and quality of life of the residents and reduce traffic pollution and noise.
These emphases are in line with the City of Reykjav\u00edk’s policy and the state and municipal transport agreement in the capital area to strengthen public transport and walking and cycling infrastructure to enable residents to use environmentally friendly means of transport. Strengthening local services in the city’s neighbourhoods, within easy walking distance for most residents, can also reduce the strain on the street system and, at the same time, contribute to health promotion.
In the future, Str\u00e6t\u00f3 and Borgarl\u00ednan (The City Line) will form a comprehensive public transport route network in the capital area.
For further detail see here.<\/a><\/strong>
It is expected that one of Borgarl\u00ednan’s core stations will be at the covered intersection of Snorrabraut and Hringbraut.<\/p>\n

Urban streets
<\/b>Urban streets are bustling with life and people travel on foot, by bicycle, by car and by public transport.

The neighborhood plan assumes that the main streets of H\u00e1teigshverfi, Hl\u00ed\u00f0ahverfi and \u00d6skjuhl\u00ed\u00f0arhverfi will be expanded with an emphasis on environmentally friendly means of transport. This transformation of the main traffic streets into so-called urban streets will radically change the appearance of the neighborhoods that form the district. The street design will reduce traffic speeds, increase traffic safety, reduce traffic noise and pollution and thus increase the quality of life of residents, but conditions can vary greatly between neighborhoods.
The design will take into account the connection between the street and the surrounding settlement and the role of streets as public spaces. Emphasis is placed on open areas, neighborhood parks and neighborhood squares. There places will be created where people meet. Increased number of trees in the neighborhood will create shelter and have a positive effect.
Urban streets should be given priority when it comes to redesigning and beautifying neighborhoods. They often have various types of shops and services as well as other support services, for example drop-off centers and electric charging stations and stations for car sharing and bicycle sharing.<\/p>\n

There is a special emphasis on Hringbraut\/Miklabraut, but through-traffic will be directed between Landsp\u00edtalal\u00f3\u00f0 and Kringlan. Above ground is an urban street with slow traffic. One of the ideas that is being considered is to set up a public transport center at the urban tunnel at the intersection of Snorrabraut, Miklabraut and B\u00fasta\u00f0avegur, but the location by BS\u00cd is also under consideration.
\nSnorrabraut connects to the proposed bridge over Fossvogur via Arnarhl\u00ed\u00f0 and Nauth\u00f3lsvegur and forms a continuous urban street across Reykjav\u00edk from the north coast to the south coast.<\/p>\n
There is strong public transport in the neighborhood. Routes through urban streets and Borgarl\u00edna routes go into dedicated spaces along Laugavegur, Miklabraut and Snorrabraut, which are urban streets. Existing walking paths are established and main walkways are a prerequisite for transportation cycling. The maximum speed of driving traffic will be reduced.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row module_id=”gongu” _builder_version=”4.9.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-13px|auto||auto||” custom_padding=”0px|||||” locked=”off” collapsed=”off”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.9.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”60px||||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||25px||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding_last_edited=”off|desktop” hover_enabled=”0″ locked=”off” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n

When redesigning streets as urban streets, bicycle traffic is taken into account. There are special cycling paths for arterial and connecting roads where the maximum speed on streets is 50km\/h or higher, but in residential streets with a maximum speed of less than 30km\/h no special measures are taken for bicycle traffic.
Improve the marking of cycling paths and the neighborhood\u2019s connection. The location of the existing crossings will be examined and they will be improved or altered as appropriate.
Urbanization of arterial roads will improve safety with increased space for pedestrians and cyclists and lower traffic speeds.
There should be bicycle parking at primary schools, secondary schools and universities for at least 20 percent of students and school staff and be as close as possible to the entrance. Half of the parking spaces must be covered. Bicycle parking spaces shall be a minimum of six per 1,000 square meters.
According to the rules of the city’s car and bicycle parking policy, bicycle parking shall be divided into two categories:
– Long-term parking spaces are bicycle parking spaces where it is assumed that the bicycles are parked for more than four hours. When implementing long-term parking spaces, emphasis must be placed on safety and reliability, and it must be possible to lock the frame of the bicycle securely. The bicycle parking must be in a locked or monitored space, for example in a designated bicycle storage. Such bicycle storage can either be inside or outside the premises.
– Short-term parking spaces are bicycle parking spaces where it is assumed that the bicycles are parked for less than four hours. When implementing short-term parking spaces, emphasis is placed on making them accessible and convenient to use. They shall be located as close as possible to the entrance to the premises.<\/p>\n
Public transport<\/strong>
Bus, tour bus and Borgarl\u00ednan traffic is directed through urban streets, and street redesign takes that traffic into account. It is assumed that regular tour bus driving on residential streets is generally prohibited.<\/p>\n

The neighborhood plan proposes that an urban road tunnel be built on Miklabraut. This would significantly reduce overground traffic, which creates good conditions for an urban street with quieter overground traffic.
With this part of the street in the tunnel, it is possible to connect the neighborhoods much better than today and create a good environment on the surface. Here you can see a detailed initial assessment of these plans.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
The estimated construction period for the first phase from Snorrabraut east over Rau\u00f0ar\u00e1rst\u00edgur is from 2024 to 2025. Construction on the second phase, from Rau\u00f0ar\u00e1rst\u00edgur to Kringlan, is planned from 2025 to 2029<\/p>\n

In the spring of 2021, the City of Reykjav\u00edk presented the proposals of five interdisciplinary groups on how to implement the development on and near the road tunnel at the intersection of Miklabraut and Snorrabraut. The proposals are the result of an ideas search that the City of Reykjav\u00edk announced in 2020.
The proposals show the appearance and development potential of a significant new settlement of residential and commercial housing above the tunnel and in its immediate vicinity, and how the settlement and the Borgarl\u00edna core station are connected to the nearby neighborhoods and surroundings.
The proposals assume that a new square will be built on top of the tunnel, and around it will be retail, service and commercial housing mixed with various types of apartments. The location of Borgarl\u00ednan fits in well with this new, dense urban settlement. It is generally assumed that a 3-5-floor settlement will be built, which will be similar in appearance to the well-established neighborhoods in the immediate vicinity.
