The following paper discusses the development of the work-flow that can be used in practice for the urban environmentally-efficient attraction points design and restoration. We developed the work-flow on the basis of the example of the design of canal district restoration in the heart of the city of Bangkok. The reference concept was developed in the scope of the International Workshop of Ur-ban and Architectural Design X edition, organized by Politecnico di Milano and Chulalongkorn University. The design ideas developed in this project are present in the study. In this article we discuss the importance of water districts restoration from environmental, social and economic points of view. The introduction of the work-flow of the canal district design that has its aim to meet the existing urban context and all the important requirements is important for designers and urban planners, since it can help to resolve a number of questions that have to be properly studied. The importance of introduction of GIS and digital twin technologies to the landscape restoration projects is as well discussed.

The growth in the number of personal vehicles in the urban environment causes significant damage to urban infrastructure and environment. European research aimed at increasing the attractiveness of public transport has mainly focused on government regulation and the development of sustainable alternative modes of transport such as cycling. The most mobile part of the Russian population is young people under the age of 30. The study is aimed at identifying behavioral responses and factors that can influence the rejection of personal transport in favor of public transport. The results showed that at the moment young people are not ready for this step. However, growing number of transport units and their comfort, as well as the creation of dedicated lanes on the roads for public transport to speed up its movement may increase the attractiveness of public transport.
