Kulkuyhteyksinä

Kulkuyhteyksinä is a Finnish grammatical form of the noun kulkuyhteys, which denotes an access route or a way of moving between places. The expression is used to describe multiple routes or connections in a general sense, highlighting their function as passages rather than their specific physical characteristics. It is commonly found in formal texts such as urban planning, transport policy, geographical descriptions, and architectural planning.

In grammatical terms, kulkuyhteyksinä represents the plural form used to convey the meaning “as access routes.” This usage emphasizes classification or role, for example when listing or describing how an area is connected to its surroundings. The form is typically encountered in planning documents, reports, and descriptive analyses where connectivity and mobility are central topics.

Usage and context can include pedestrian, cycling, and motorized connections, as well as public transport corridors. Descriptions may encompass streets, sidewalks, bike lanes, footpaths, and transit routes that together constitute the network by which people and goods move through a space. Writers often employ kulkuyhteyksinä to frame accessibility as a functional attribute of an area rather than a static feature.

Examples:

- Esimerkiksi alueen kulkuyhteyksinä toimivat pääkadut sekä pyöräily- ja jalankulkuväylät.

- Suunnittelussa on huomioitava sekä nykyiset että tulevat kulkuyhteyksinä toimivat reitit.
