Loop Lab envisions the Golden Mile neighbourhood in Mississauga as a laboratory for new transport technologies. As a direct response to the growing consumer demand for convenience, new infrastructural networks have been introduced to refresh this suburb of solely big box stores and employment lands. These revamped infrastructures would be made up of autonomous vehicular loops, drone delivery service through the hydro corridor and green energy.
PHASING
The phasing for this new city would allow for as much of the site to be accessible. Micro loops(carrying the autonomous vehicles) would be laid in after new development is built up. Tertiary loops would then be laid in to connect the disparate districts within the neighbourhood. The primary loops would then come in to connect the larger streets of Eglinton, Birchmount, and Warden. Tree canopy would then be added to the abundance of newly available central green islands and help with reducing green island effect all around city.
