Produktbeschreibung
This book examines the interface that existed between the evolving urban land use and the planning of Solwezi urban in Zambia. This is because the problem of land use fragmentation appeared to have impacted negatively on the town's urban morphology and on its spatial distribution of infrastructure and services. The book seeks to explain the various functions of the town and their existing patterns and how these related to the planning of Solwezi urban. The study revealed that there was some degree of misuse of land and a considerable mismatch between the use of urban land and the spatial distribution of infrastructure and services in the town. A remarkable socio-economic division existed where poor housing standards and poor roads were still prevalent among the low-income groups. The functions of the town still showed a character that lacked distinctiveness and in which a lot needed to be done to reduce the existing inequalities. Key words: Interface, evolving urban land-use, land use planning, land use fragmentation, urban morphology, morphogenesis & spatial distribution.
