Maintaining continuity of the ecosystem is becoming a central element in spatial planning policies. Several authors acknowledge the environmental fragmentation due to human action as one of the main causes which has negative effects on biodiversity. The environmental fragmentation is assimilated to the landscape fragmentation: the transformation of larger patches of habitat in smaller ones, or fragments, which tend to be more isolated than the original condition. Landscape fragmentation is extremely evident in urban areas, including settlements and various transport and mobility infrastructures. The main ecological effects due to the presence of a road network include loss of habitat, increased mortality of plants, and isolation of animal a...
