Abstract
This article discusses the potential for modifying the existing transport and circulation structure of the centre of Wrocław in order to create new social spaces and a coherent and continuous public space layout. This research is based on an analysis of the functional and spatial structure of downtown Wrocław, circulation accessibility, an analysis of planning documents, and additional studies on so-called standards. Contemporary directions and trends in urban space design were also analysed, both in the literature and in completed examples of transport space remodels. Proposals for functional models that could be applied in Wrocław’s centre were developed and their implementation was undertaken, in particular on Szewska Street.
