Abstract

Cities will transform and morph into something completely different for the next generation. Just as the car replaced the horse, the car will shortly be replaced, because of fossil fuel, and with, it the road system that exists in towns and cities everywhere. The high street is also under stress as more and more of us use on-line shopping, meaning that they are littered with second-hand shops and coffee take-away. However, cities are popular and will continue to grow, especially as more and more people are displaced due to climate change and weather disasters. The following is a rambling through these thoughts about what might just happen.
