Controlling physical expansion of cities
Description
Controlling physical expansion of cities involves implementing policies and planning measures to limit urban sprawl, protect natural and agricultural land, and promote efficient land use. This strategy aims to contain city growth within defined boundaries, encourage higher-density development, and optimize infrastructure investment. By managing expansion, cities can reduce environmental degradation, minimize transportation challenges, and ensure sustainable resource use, thereby addressing issues such as habitat loss, increased pollution, and inefficient public service delivery.
