Other documents

The document analyse the existing urban structure and proposes a new one that ensure the provision of urban centres, street network and public spaces and eventually would allow residents to access basic services, public facilities, businesses and working areas within walking distance of their homes. The main boulevards and streets are designed in accordance with the existing topography.

They take into account the existing grid in order to provide a comprehensive network of streets and public spaces that are essential not only in limiting urban sprawl, but also in
contributing to a compact and connected city. Implementation of the plan will benefit residents and the city as a whole as management strategies aimed at reducing hazardous risks have been adopted.
