The last century is characterized by rapid development of cities, agglomerations and urban areas. Urban space needs to serve a variety of human needs: housing, working, social interaction, leisure, and mobility of persons and goods. Human beings also need nature within their living areas; green spots for recreation and relaxation. Trees, parks and other greenery helps provide healthy living conditions by cleaning the air of pollutants, absorbing noise, and regulating humidity. Beyond this direct anthropocentric (human-centred) perspective, conservation of natural habitats is necessary for maintaining the functioning of ecosystems of all life on earth. Spatial planning of urban territory is the basis where are created buildings, street location, park system and others. Kazakhstan?s major cities were built in 20?th century during Soviet period. Capacity of the territory, streets, buildings were expected for 1960-ies. Accordingly, nowadays urban area is not ready to fulfil the modern needs of citizens. The aim of this paper is to provide information on transportation system of Almaty city in Kazakhstan, the environment condition, impact of transportation on ecology and to disseminate experiences in dealing with relationships between land-use structures and transport, and to discuss strategies to support the realization of more sustainable urban transport by land-use planning
