Development and function of cities are strongly linked to urban infrastructures, as are urban sustainability and the total performance of the urban system. Introducing a series of issues to focus on the different urban infrastructures, the present issue includes a range of articles covering part of the broad range of urban infrastructure systems. The four next ones will cover the following topics: ‘Urban transport’, ‘Urban energy infrastructures’, ‘Urban water and sewage infrastructure systems’ and ‘Urban telecommunication systems’.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n <\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Download full issue <\/span><\/b><\/span> <\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Dossier – Urban Infrastructures and Sustainability<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Challenges for infrastructure provision of post-socialist Moscow megacity: Housing and communal services. <\/span><\/b><\/span> Urban infrastructure in Russia was heavily subsidized by the state during the socialist period.
