This presentation is based on the examination before the earthquake and to be reconsidered. 8

9 2.2 Alternative Plans of Urban Structure Structure Land use Transport Case 0 Monocentric Case 1 Monocentric and multipolar Case 2 Compact on eastwest axis with twin centers -Monocentric structure, Overconcentration -Trend pattern of expanding urban area in suburbs as typical sprawl -Assigning sub-city centers on the ring road -Monocentric structure -Improving Trend pattern by building planned new towns with high density on the outer ring road in suburb -Assigning sub-city centers on the ring road -TOD plan which develops the areas around the stations of new transport system -Twin center structure -Shift from the trend pattern expanding urban area in all directions to the compact pattern aggregating urban area on the east-west axis -Assigning sub-city centers on the ring road -Typical TOD plan which develops new towns on the axis of East-West with a installation of new transport system -Inner ring road -Outer ring road -Installation of new transport system on both North-South and East-West axis -Installation of BRT on both the Ring road and inner ring road -Same as Case-0 except the outer ring road without north and northwest section -Inner ring road -Outer ring road is not constructed -Installation of new transport system on both North-South and East-West axis -Installation of BRT on both the Ring road and inner ring road Case 3 Integration of Case-1 and Case-2 -Twin center structure -Integration of Case-1 and Case-2 -Same as Case-1 9

10 Long Term Plan Case-0 Long Term Plan Case-1 Long Term Plan Case-2 Long Term Plan Case-3 Integration of Case-1 and Case-2 Future Urban Structure Plan (Draft) - Twin-Center on East-West axis with Multipolar - Compact unban development in suburb - TOD with Installation of Mass Transit system This presentation is based on the examination before the earthquake and to be reconsidered. 10

11 Case-0 Case-1 Case-2 Case-3 Future Urban Structure Plan twin-center on East- West axis with Multipolar - Compact unban development in suburb - TOD with Installation of Mass Transit system This presentation is based on the examination before the earthquake and to be reconsidered. 11

12 Seminar on10 Jul Definitive Urban Structure Structure Plan Advantage Disadvantage Case 0 Monocentric Case 1 Monocentric and multipolar Case 2 Compact on eastwest axis with twin centers Case 3 Integration of Case- 1 and Case-2 Nothing, but this is the trend of land use pattern. This would be a practical solution for urban development without some socio-economic inequality between the districts because development areas are distributed. This is an innovative TOD solution for increasing future traffic demand if high capacity transport network is efficiently used along the east-west corridor. This is set up by taking advantages and overcoming the disadvantages of both Case- 1 and Case-2. Therefore, this can be said as a relatively better balanced urban structure than the above tree alternatives. Heavy traffic congestion in city center, deteriorating environment in suburb, huge investment for transport infrastructure and so on Traffic congestion in the city center will be difficult to improve without huge investment for public transport and radial arterial roads. This has a risk in that large scale development in the east area would become difficult because there are rich cultural, natural and agricultural assets. In addition, If development and investment are concentrated in the East and West areas, some socio-economic inequality and disparities between the districts would be occurred. This would be the same as mono-centric urban structure like Case-1 if twin centers are not worked well. Therefore, building a new center on East-west axis is the key issue for success. As a definitive urban structure, based on the discussion of WGs Case-3 is recommended. This presentation is based on the examination before the earthquake and to be reconsidered. 12

13 2.4 Layout of New Urban Area This presentation is based on the examination before the earthquake and to be reconsidered. 13

14 2.5 Zoning and Characteristics Existing Functions of Central Business District (Government, Commercial, Office, Education, Hospital etc.) Logistic Center (Ongoing) New Logistic Truck Park Freight traffic center University Agriculture and Pharmaceutic area Sub-center of Kathmandu Valley Tourist base This presentation is based on the examination before the earthquake and to be reconsidered.

15 Part 3. Transport Network Plan 3.1 Road Network Development Target 3.2 Concept for Future Road Network System 3.3 Proposed Future Road Network 3.4 Public Transport Development Strategy 3.5 Conceptual Plan of Public Transport Network 15

16 3.1 Road Network Development Target Target 1. Coordination with Urban Land Use Plan Measures Systematic road distribution to new urban area. Securement of road space for primary public transport route 2. Improvement of Network System 3. Supply of Road Capacity 4. Improvement of Bottle-neck Conversion to radial-circumferential system from radial system Development of IRR Widening of roads where capacity is required. Development of off road parking, bus and truck depot. Installation of bridges. Improvement of intersections. Improvement of river crossing 5. Provision of appropriate road facilities including cross section Signals Pedestrian signals/pedestrian bridges Road cross section with appropriate pedestrian way/bike lane and motorcycle lane. This presentation is based on the examination before the earthquake and to be reconsidered. 16

17 3.2 Concept for Future Road Network System Ring Road Tribhuvan Highway Arniko Highway Issues caused by current network system - Vehicles concentrate into CBD. - Vehicles which do not have destination in CBD are forced to go through CBD. Densely inhabited area Central Business District (CBD) Current Road Network System - Radial Road Network System except Ring Road This presentation is based on the examination before the earthquake and to be reconsidered. 17

18 Future Road Network System - Conversion to Radial-Circumferential road network Tribhuvan Highway Ring Road Inner Ring Road Arniko Highway Development of Inner Ring Road enables vehicles to divert congested CBD area.
