Geographical location and transportation connectivity
Both public and private transportation connections are highlighted
by different forces. Accessibility by pedestrians and cyclists
is emphasized especially by environmental pressure, while global
connectivity is driven by globalization. Remote working and
e-commerce affect the accessibility in contradictory ways. For
example, distance working can decrease its meaning while ecommerce
can even highlight the accessibility issues of certain
retail premises. Location will also be an important way to affect
image, availability of workforce and real estate costs. A central location
and nearness of other actors are highlighted by some of the
forces while a lonely and distant location is appreciated by others
and leads to an increasingly dispersed urban structure.
