 The transition of transportation systems in the city leads to changes in urban space and urban organization. In most pre-medieval towns, where most people walked, only a small part of the population, such as high nobles or soldiers, used horses as a means of transportation. The boundaries and the spatial structure of towns were based on the limits of a person’s walking ability. Land use patterns were determined based on physical properties and the mobility of the means of transportation.
 As the next generation of traffic technology developed, the traffic system in the city changed drastically. It will have a significant impact on the development and change of architecture and urban space, and it can be applied in various aspects such as planning, design, and operation in relation to the spatial changes caused by the next generation of transportation technology. The temporal range
covered in this study is set to be 5 to 10 years (near term) in the future.
