Environmental trends, such as biodiversity loss and global warming are increasing rapidly, as a result of the ecological footprints of cities. Gulf cities, for example, have been rapidly developed since the discovery of oil and under the influence of globalization as they transition from traditional settlements into modern metropolitan cities. With this fast modernization, green and agricultural spaces have been reduced and/or replaced by built-up areas and buildings, alien to the multilayered historical built form, changing the built environment of cities and causing environmental, social, and economic problems. Consequently, the planning of parks and open spaces have been neglected within the formulation of modern master planning of cities, resulting in the formation of areas mostly scattered in empty lots.

Cities and mobility within the country. metropolises grow and expand as population increases within an urban space, and the city’s authorities are mainly responsible for maintaining and upholding efficient modes of mobility. A community that lacks infrastructure for mobility is thus not sustainable because there won’t be a steady inflow of people and goods needed for a city’s survival. A path-dependent system is one in which the initial conditions play a key role in determining future structure (Smith 2011, p32). In the case of Bahrain, path dependence refers to the country’s heavy dependence on the automobile as a primary mode of transport. The built environment of a city plays a key role in determining whether or not that city and its inhabitants are flourishing.
