An Integrative Streetscape with Modular Design Guideline of the Spinal Streets of Sylhet City Corporation Area, Bangladesh

A street configuration and environment traced out from the local needs, culture, and available natural and manmade resources. A fruitful implementation of these criteria with a proper framework and guideline of street can bring a better pattern, fabric and vibration in a city area. This research finds those street guidelines in a modular pattern for the specific spinal streets of SCC area and proposed a design guideline of streetscape for the specific two major spinal streets of SCC area which can fasten the urban moveability, performance, and growth rate in a healthy manner through street use- policy, spatial morphology, green landscape, and integrated activities. A mixed method of primary data collected by self- observation, spatial sketches, trace findings, photograph collecting, random public interviews from field survey and the secondary data gathered by desktop survey, map survey, books, articles, magazine, newspaper and standards as literature survey. This study found, sorted and proposed a design guideline of the existing streetscape considering the existing limitations and resources. It has proposed a rational spatial and green streetscape to ensure better functioning, moveability and breathing city zone. It would also be helpful for further research on the street landscapes in urban areas.
