1. DELINEATION OF AHMEDABAD METROPOLITAN REGION Center for Environmental Planning & Technology (CEPT) By: Prof Utpal Sharma

2. The Concept and The Objectives • Today it prevails in most planning and city management policies in Europe, USA and Australia. In USA it’s called TODs or Neotraditional Towns promoted through Smart Growth movement. Perceived Objectives are: (Jenks et al., 1996; Williams et al., 2000)

3. Cities on the Move • Following database from a set of 278 million plus population cities, explains the dynamics of cities. (Source: www.world-gazetteer.com, www.demographia.com, UITP 2001 Report, www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/iea, www.alain-bertaud.com, FTANT Database & FHWA Highway Statistics 2005, Asian Cities Database by ITPD, WRI/EMBARQ & CAI-Asia 2005, JnNURM CDPs, ITPS Public Transport for Sustainable Mobility in Asian Cities, DTRS: Australian Trends to 2020

4. CAGR is high for recent developing cities particularly smaller cities of Developing Economies of the World particularly Asian cities with Density Directly Correlated to CAGR by 0.36. Predominant Developing Economies India L. America China EU

5. Per Capita Petroleum Consumption high for sprawled or rich cities of Developed Economies of the World particularly American, European and Middle East Asian cities, Inversely Correlated to Density Predominant Developed Economies N. America Australia Europe S. America Asia

7. Public Transport seems efficient in cities with high intensity or land management/market compulsion with Inverse Correlation to Per Capita Petroleum Share by -0.35 Predominant Dense or Land Constrained Economies

9. Significance of Urban Density, Sprawl and Landuse • Modern city growth patterns are increasingly land-intensive. • Average urban densities have declined for past two centuries. • As transportation continues to improve, the tendency is for cities to use up more and more land per person. • This process of Urban Sprawl, largely in non-contiguous transitional zones between countryside and city, is increasingly being referred to as “peri-urbanization”.
