Many countries are moving to a new technological structure, caused by the 4th industrial and technological revolution. This transition is accompanied by the transformation of the previously existing territorial organization of the economy, infrastructure and resettlement, which relates to issues of urban development policy. In this case, coordination of the interests of the state and business is required. An effective tool in this area is public-private partnership (PPP). The main goal is the development of tools for the implementation of innovative urban development policy in the technological and social transformation of the economy. The methodological basis is the methodologies, approaches in the works of foreign and Russian scientists in the field of PPP research in the implementation of innovative urban policy. The main results of the study are following: 1.The modern task of urban development policy is the formation of a comfortable environment that will ensure a high standard of living for the population. 2. For the implementation of this task, the “adaptive territory” approach is suggested. 3. The modern tool for this approach is PPP. The main conclusions and recommendations can be used to justify the mechanisms for implementing innovative urban development policy in order to harmonize the interests of the state and business in the implementation of the “adaptive territory” approach, which meets the modern development paths of the global economy.

The article discusses the concept of human planning proposed by Danish architect Jan Gehl. He criticizes the main trajectory of urban development in the twentieth century and points out that for several decades architects were more concerned about creating space for the free movement of cars. With this approach, the interests of pedestrians are ignored; as a result people are gradually squeezed out of the streets by cars because of streets’ low comfort for them. Gehl suggests revising the priorities of urban planning and creating urban space for pedestrians to intensify social interactions. He believes that creating conditions for walking and increasing the number of public spaces can help to improve citizens’ quality of life. Gehl‘s proposals today become the basis for the reorganization of some cities in the world, including Moscow.

The need for transit oriented development (TOD) around railway stations has been well accepted and continues to be needed in cities looking to regenerate both transit and urban development. Large parts of suburban areas remain without quality transit down main roads that are usually filled with traffic resulting in reduced urban value. The need to regenerate both the mobility and land development along such roads will likely be the next big agenda in transport and urban policy. This paper learns from century-old experiences in public–private approaches to railway-based urban development from around the world, along with innovative insights from the novel integration of historical perspectives, entrepreneurship theory and urban planning to create the notion of a “Transit Activated Corridor” (TAC). TACs prioritize fast transit and a string of station precincts along urban main roads. The core policy processes for a TAC are outlined with some early case studies. Five design principles for delivering a TAC are presented in this paper, three principles from entrepreneurship theory and two from urban planning. The potential for new mid-tier transit like trackless trams to enable TACs is used to illustrate how these design processes can be an effective approach for designing, financing and delivering a “Transit Activated Corridor”.

Abstract This article deals with new locative and multimodial media formats, which yield aspects of city histories, re-evaluating their cultural and also their touristic image. The analysis explores the shift from written city guides and building inscriptions to multimodal products (websites, apps) by focussing on two central techniques: the various forms of adressing and the linguistic description for localization, specifically local deicitica. Analogical to the “recipient design” as a basic concept of conversation analysis, the term “spacial design” is chosen to describe the linguistic means, which adjust the multimodal text to the artifacts of urban space, so that a interpretative historic formation will attach to the spacial environment and change the city view. One result of the analysis was the discovery of a mixture of personal and impersonal types of adressing, which shows, that personal adressing joins methods of multiple adressing in multimodal urban communication. The analysis also suggests, that localization practices get diversificated. The new communication products show multiple (“overdetermines”) deictica and phoric anchorages in the urban space, i. e. the deixis is overdetermined as perceptual and imagination-oriented, furthermore deictica are also connected with text elements (by phoric relations). As a discourse grammatical result, the emerged patterns construct an image of nearly automatical unevitaly and depersonalized urban development (e. g. road construction). This impression results from accounts of passive constructions related with instrumental sub-clauses.
