Typology of neighbourhood layouts in the study
| Typology | Key characteristics | Case study |
|---|---|---|
| Cul-de-sac | Hierarchical network with dead-end streets. Limited connectivity and permeability. Prioritizes local access and privacy | Onaiza, Hazem Almarkhiya |
| Loop | Curvilinear street patterns that form loops, connecting back to main distributor roads. More connectivity than cul-de-sacs but less than grids | Al Khulaifat, Duhail North |
| Semi-gridded | A modified grid system with high interconnectivity of streets, offering multiple routes. Promotes walkability and visual integration | Al Thumama, Dahl Alham |
