Abstract
This note summarises the production of a new road/street network classification for Havana, Cuba. This classification was the output of a 2-day workshop with representatives of national and municipal planning and transport authorities and of the local community of Centro Habana. The workshop highlighted the limitations of traditional road network classifications and introduced participants to alternative approaches that consider the dual function of streets as links (conduits for movement) and places (destinations in their own right). Workshop participants then produced a new classification of Havana’s road/street network based on these two functions.
