No serious attempt has been made to establish adequate communications between the northern districts. Admittedly a tunnel under the Johannes district is suggested, but its capacity would have been meagre and it had no satisfactory link-up with the street network on the western side. New areas have been laid out by adding extensions— generally wider—to existing streets, but the width of the streets is everywhere quite modest. The creation of new crossing-streets has resulted in a somewhat unstructured network of large blocks; here, too, the system of through-roads does not appear to have received sufficient attention. Tree-lined streets and parks are mainly confined to the outer reaches of the city, and were to make hardly any real impact on conditions in the central districts. As in the Hobrecht plan for Berlin, a large section of the urban area is surrounded by a ring boulevard along the city border, as instructed by the governor himself. Market squares have been planned in several places. A number of starshaped ‘squares’ are also included in the plan, mainly located on the ring boulevard. To summarize: Rudberg and Wallström’s proposal was certainly made with the best intentions, and its details are in many cases well thought out, but it lacks the great radical vision required for any fundamental improvement in Stockholm’s urban environment.
