  1. Limiting Urban Sprawl Work Package 5

  2. General structure of WP5 In general the work of WP5 is structured in two main phases: • Phase of analysis of the state of art (existing trends of urban sprawl in Rome, Sofia and Belgrade) and development of measures and regulations • Implementation of the measures and the regulations developed at the final stage of Phase 1, monitoring and corrections of the measures and update of the regulations Phase 1 should be completed by M 24. Clearly, it covers the larger part of the research activities

  3. Task 5.1 - Definition of Urban Sprawl for use by WP5 Within Phase 1 two “sub-phases” can be identified • Stage of analysis = study of the current processes • T5.1a - Establishing the framework of research- system of terms, goals, methodology and tools • T5.2 - Survey of city residents’ preferences, attitudes and motives, trends of urban migration • T5.3 - Survey of planning documents - standards and regulations, spatial and master plans, plans for regional development • T5.4 - Application of MOLAND information technology • T5.5 - Market analysis - demand and supply of land and properties in suburban areas • T5.6 - Study of the role and efficiency of nodes in a polycentric urban system

  4. Task 5.1 - Definition of Urban Sprawl for use by WP5 The second “sub-phase” within Phase 1 should be identified as: • Stage of synthesis = development of measures and regulations • T5.7 - Preparation of planning and development regulations concerning peripheral territories aimed to limit urban sprawl • T5.7a - Evaluation of the research results and the systems of regulations prepared for Rome and Sofia • T5.8 - Development of a system of tools for monitoring and assessment of urban sprawl

  6. Tasks within WP5

  7. Work Package 5 OBJECTIVES • To explore the effects of societal transformation on the process of suburbanisation and planning practices with particular attention to attitudinal cleavages with regard to compact vs. dispersed development. • To apply the model for Monitoring Urban Land Cover Dynamics (MOLAND) to better understand the factors that determine the urban development pattern at the urban periphery; • To propose regulations and guidance tools which will be implemented by local governments during the lifetime of the project to address the problems of urban sprawl in their respective cities. • To develop appropriate monitoring and assessment tools - ex ante and ex post policy evaluations, criteria and indicators - for tracking urban development trends and patterns and to build recommendations and guidelines on managing urban sprawl which will be demonstrated in the other participating cities of the TURAS project network and in a wider European context.

  8. Task 5.1a - Establishing the framework of research- system of terms, goals, methodology and tools Start – January 2012; End – December 2012 Leader – VFU; Participants: all partners of WP5 Definition of urban sprawl in the European context and in the context of South and in Eastern Europe Urban sprawl isa market-led, unplanned process of inefficient physical expansion of urban areas into the surrounding rural and/ or natural lands that is characterized by: a) Low density of new developments, patchy, scattered forms, with a tendency for discontinuity, b) Poor mix of different land uses and urban activities, lack of well-defined, thriving activity centres, hubs of public services and commerce and c) Insufficiently covered by public transport services System of terms Definition of goals Methodology and tools

  9. Task 5.1a - Establishing the framework of research- system of terms, goals, methodology and tools Results (document produced): • Market analysis guidelines (MS27) The goal was to establish a general framework for the studies carried out by La Sapienza, VFU, IAUS and BIC Lazio, so that the studies should be comparable Who will use the results: • Mainly the research teams of La Sapienza, IAUS and VFU • Also, the Municipality of Sofia and the City of Rome needed to be acquainted with the framework in order to find out how they would benefit from the TURAS WP5 activities Method of dissemination • The local authorities of the capital cities were informed as participants, the District administrations were also informed directly • The websites • Exhibition of posters

  10. Task 5.2 - Survey of city residents’ preferences, attitudes and motives, trends of urban migration • Start – January 2012; End – December 2012 • Milestone – December 2012 – MS 28 Population survey • Leader – City of Rome; • Participants: VFU, IAUS, La Sapienza, BIC Lazio, City of Sofia • The City of Rome (and BIC Lazio) and the Municipality of Sofia and IAUS have provided information and data concerning the cities, respectively, Rome, Sofia and Belgrade about 1) evidenced physical changes in the suburbs and peripheral territories: total land converted in the suburbs and the adjacent territories in two periods – of 10 and 20 years and 2) migration to capital cities and intra-city migration trends, change in the number of population living in the suburbs compared to the change of the population in the central districts • La Sapienza, VFU and IAUS have processed the data collected about the physical trends in the suburbs of capital cities, intra-city migration trends and the market trends, analyzed these data and the trends and have drawn conclusions about the observed processes.

  11. Task 5.2 - Survey of city residents’ preferences, attitudes and motives, trends of urban migration • La Sapienza, VFU and IAUS have stated the results of their observations and conclusions in respective reports about: 1) who is looking for land in the peripheral areas of Rome and for what purpose (function), 2) how much land is urbanized in result of the specific types of demand (quantitative indicators), 3) qualitative characteristics of converted land – new land use, what was the new development in terms of housing and residential densities • The City of Rome has collected the reports and prepared a compiled document with the summaries of the analyses about Rome, Sofia and Belgrade

  12. Task 5.2 - Survey of city residents’ preferences, attitudes and motives, trends of urban migration Results – Documents prepared: • Demographic development of the districts of Sofia and processes of intra-city migration • Survey of city residents’ preferences, attitudes and motives, trends of intra-city migration in Sofia • Survey of city residents’ preferences, attitudes and motives, trends of intra-city migration in Rome – Three separate documents were produced by the City of Rome, La Sapienza and BIC Lazio • Survey of city residents’ preferences, attitudes and motives, trends of intra-city migration in Belgrade Who will use the results: • Mainly the research teams of VFU, La Sapienza and IAUS

  13. T 5.3. Survey of planning documents – standards, regulations, plans for regional development, spatial plans • Start – January 2012; End – September 2012 • Leader – VFU; • Participants: La Sapienza, IAUS Varna Free University, IAUS and La Sapienza have studied planning Bulgarian, Serbian and Italian legal and planning framework and plans and strategies covering the capital cities, particularly the national and local legislation/ regulations • 1) concerning conversion of rural land and forestry into urbanized land, details of the procedures of conversion, national and local regulations concerning the development of converted land (zoning/ hygienic requirements, densities allowed or stimulated), with respect to the effect of the framework on urban expansion and sprawl and • 2) documents of regional and local policies (national/ regional strategies and plans) and spatial plans (regional territorial plans, the master plans of Sofia) particularly concerning the capital city • 3) assessment of the effect of analyzed plans on urban expansion and sprawl and on the market, How these plans correspond to the interests of the main market players? Do they provide efficient instruments for reasonable and efficient control of urban expansion? • 4) VFU has collected and compiled the analyses of the legislation, regulations and plans of Rome, Sofia and Belgrade
