23. CAUSES OF URBAN SPRAWL
 Demographic Changes : Demographic changes, so land use changes, more land is required.
 Rent Gradient : Decline in rents with distance from the city center.
 Growing Affluence : Affluent people buy more land and build larger homes, and it is evenly distributed
which has increased about 6 times over 10 years.
 Economics of land
assembly : At the periphery, large parcels are available that can be purchased
from a single owner.
 Differences in Govt.
Services and attitudes : Infrastructure maintaince depends upon the type of the area selected `
Old infrastructure is more expensive to operate and maintain.

24. CAUSES OF URBAN SPRAWL
 Transportation : If transportation is fast and cheap, people can save more by moving
farther, and they can afford to buy even more land.
 Land Use Regulation : Setbacks, street widths, minimum parking requirements are not taken care.
 Misinterpretation of
farm house : This serves as a residential purpose in rural and agricultural setting.
 Tax Policy : The mortgage interest deduction does little to increase the percentage
of households and encourages higher-income home buyers to purchase
larger and expensive homes.
 Topographic Barriers : Natural Sprawl grows freely like an organism. The only control is
natural features like sea, rivers etc. are facing obstruction for growth
on one side by presence of sea.

 Land Consumption
 Energy Consumption
 Economic Impacts
 Neighborhood Quality
 Increased Tax Burden
ENCROACHMENTS IN GREEN BELT
Nagpur DP 1976, has a land use reserved for no development zone which
included Green belt and agricultural land keeping the intend of “ Green
Nagpur city”. The area reserved for the green belt and agricultural land was
11043 Ha = 47%..
There is vast reduction in the green belt ( more than 50%)till date.
With the current growth , after 20 years there will be no green belt within
municipality boundary.
But in due course of time there is vast reduction in the green belt . the main
reason will be high land value and unauthorized layout.

26. NAGPUR DEVELOPMENT PLAN
(D.P.) 1976
After the enforcement of Maharashtra Regional & Town
Planning Act 1966, the improvement Trust declared its intention
in the year 1969 to prepare a development plan of Nagpur, but
since the Improvement trust was receiving a no. of layouts and
diversion cases it was necessary first to get the Interim
Development plan prepared under Section 32. Of M.R.T.P act
This was 1st development plan for Nagpur city
But
 City started expanded in all direction
 No. of Housing co-op societies came up.
 Some agencies infringed the regulation Of NIT and NMC n
established unauthorized colonies. Slums came up.
NAGPUR MASTER PLAN 1952
The NIT in year 1946 with its unrivalled knowledge of the town and
its need and problems prepared “ Master Plan” for Nagpur. The plan
contains financial policy, development control and zonig regulations.
The municipalities and adjoining villages were merges together in
1951 to municipal corporation. At that time there were merges in
1951 to form Muncipal corporation. At that time there were 42 wards
with a population of 4.5 lakhs , now they are 126 wards with
population of more than 30 lakhs appx.
NAGPUR IN 1941
Urban area was confined to tye Mouzas Of Nagpur , Sitabuldi,
Dantholi, Gadga, Bhankheda , Dharmpeth, Binaki,
Sakkardhara, Hansapuri and Wadpakad.
NAGPUR PLANNING EFFORTS

27. NAGPUR REVISED DEVELOPMENT PLAN 1986-2011
Plan preparation
 The land uses and their consequential results density of population and construction ,
congestion on road deteriorating services became more complex thus, revision of D.P. was the
need.
 Western areas are having more development compared to eastern.
 Urban centre are growing at higher intensity at core and expansion at periphery.
 As the impact of economic and industrial policies is difficult to predict, therefore it is difficult
to project population after 20 years.
NAGPUR PLANNING EFFORTS

28. INFERANCE
THE PERI URBAN AREAS IN AND AROUND NAGPUR ARE DEVELOPING SPEEDILY.
THE NAGPUR METROPOLITAN AREA LAND FOR 2031 IS LOOKING TO SOLVE
ACCESSIBILITY ISSUES CAUSED BY URBAN SPRAWL IN THE PERI URBAN AREAS.
ALSO IMPROVE LINKAGES WILL HELP TO SOLVE THE ISSUES IN ROAD NETWORK
