Nagarlok:Quarterly Journal of Urban AffairsSummary: The present-day transport systems and networks struggle with a vast number of problems, from inefficient designs, vehicular collisions to environment degradation. Modern transport systems and networks seek innovative and multidimensional planning approaches. The transport problems can only be efficiently mitigated by exploring different disciplines. Nature has a vast source of knowledge and humans have long been learning from it. Biomimicry is the science of exploring the form, process and ecosystem in nature to solve human problems. Biomimicry holds great potentials to efficiently mitigate the transport problems by integrating nature-inspired strategies and solutions to long-term and short term planning practices. The present paper is concerned with exploring applications of biomimicry at different levels in transport solutions in different cases to explore challenges, potentials and possibilities so as to make the transport systems and networks more efficient, safe and to make cities more connected to nature.- Reproduced
