issues is identified to a part of the population displaced by the urban space, which fails to adapt,

on places, but also on the areas that exceed those limits, as follows:
• The development and diversification of the commercial activities, plus the opportunity of
creating new jobs
• Bridging the gap between business people3. access to new technologies and to the various
areas of activity, which ensures raising incomes and the development of individuals
• development of infrastructure and increase of the number of motor vehicles, which generates
both an intensification of resource consumption, and an increase in the level of air pollution and
their impact on the environment and on the health condition of individuals. This intensification
of transport is determined by the density increased in these areas, but also by the low level of
development of the public transport service
Conclusions
All the situations we face globally in terms of urban and spatial extent of the phenomenon of
urbanization, need an urgent adoption of measures and methods to minimize the adverse eects
and to strengthen their benefits, one of the solutions is the orientation to green cities, subjected to
the principles of sustainable development and the establishment of urban spaces adapted to the
environmental principles. Also, should be taken into consideration the development of new
opportunities in rural areas in order to prevent the realization of scenarios regarding the spatial
migration trend of rural to urban areas in the following years.
