7 Implicit sustainable urbanization : 1 st report on spatial policy Green Heart: containment urbanization Randstad: functional interrelationship cities 1966: 2 nd report on spatial policy Concentrated deconcentration: Spillover centres Growth centres 1974: 3 rd report on spatial policy Link to public transport system Maximum distance growth centre-city inner city problems (social cohesion)

11 Growth centres Donor cities Growth centres

12 Concentrated deconcentration in practice

13 Implicit sustainable urbanization : 4 th report on spatial policy Extra Large-scale house-building programs (Vinex) Compact city (in or adjacent to city) 2001: 5 th report on spatial policy Urban networks as search area for new building sites Integrated, self-contained housing / labour markets, self-sufficient urban functions Layer approach

14 National urban networks

15 Layer approach occupation yr network yr ground >100 yr

16 Implicit sustainable urbanization : National Spatial Strategy Basic quality standards (environmental legislation, process criteria) Layer approach: relate processes in different layers 2005 Not clearly sustainable: Shift of power: local when possible, central when necessary (subsidiarity) Emphasis on spatial development lowering of restrictions

17 Sustainable development 1960: 1 st wave - environmental awareness Same roots as spatial planning (slums) Emerging environmental problems 1990: 2 nd wave - sustainable development Coalition of discourses: P ánd P ánd P Dept. environment dept. spatial planning 2000: 3 rd wave - embracement of long term Long term studies since 1988 didn t make it Quest for bringing future concerns in political balancing processes

18 From sectoral to integral, using all timescales

19 Overview Historic overview Dutch policy Sustainability in urban development Sustainable development When is urban development sustainable? Illustration: Randstad 2040 Concluding remarks

20 Sustainable spatial development today in the Netherlands Spatial aspects of sustainability: Layer approach Concentration strategies Saving precious landscapes Building ecological structure Spatial quality (using, future and experience) Location of activities / urban services

21 Persistent unsustainable trends Climate change / dependence exhausting energy supplies Polarisation in society Loss of natural resources, ecosystems and biodiversity Increasing environmental damage Unsustainable production and consumption

22 What is sustainable? Unsustainability often facilitated by spatial developments People, Planet, Prosperity (Participation) Long term In policy: Policy reports use unclear definitions Used to distinguish from others

23 Two aspects of sustainability 1. Value: - No irretrievable environmental damage - Renewable stocks: not beyond regeneration - Biodiversity kept intact 2. Meta-concept : - Everything relates to everything - Find a balance!

34 Demand for urbanization 2040

35 Sustainable Randstad in effect houses ( ) Increase densities working / living Adaptation to climate change Increased accessibility public transport, roads, development of nodes Reinforce Amsterdam Airport Schiphol Enhance co-operation between ports

36 Randstad 2040 priorities

37 Sustainable? Long term, layer approach, 3 P s Selective choice/elaboration of topics Unclear value-aspect of sustainability Linkage long-term view short-term policy No traceable change of policy

38 In short Historic overview Dutch policy Sustainability in urban development Sustainable development When is urban development sustainable? Illustration: Randstad 2040 Concluding remarks

39 Concluding remarks Sustainability more and more explicit Comprehensive, long-term perspective Focus on contrast red green Randstad: sustainable as meta-concept Value aspect is less clear / selective Needs further elaboration

43 st report spatial planning Discussion on new spatial concepts Processes like urban deconcentration Formation of urban regions Did not make it into 1 st report Green Heart / Randstad (Rim City) Functional interrelationship between cities Containment of urban development

44 nd report spatial planning Thinking in urban regions Concentrated deconcentration / spillover centres) Structural scheme main roads inserted vague relation between infrastructure, mobility and pattern of urbanization

45 Concentrated deconcentration

46 rd report spatial planning Enormous shortage of houses growth centre policy Distance growth centre / donor city large Later: linked to public transport system Maximum distance (30 min. / 4 km) focus on city & inner city problems Social and employment issues: social cohesion

47 Growth centres Donor cities Growth centres

48 th report spatial planning Improve competitive position new spatial-economic concepts

49 th report spatial planning Extra (Vinex) Management of urban deconcentration Large-scale house-building programmes Compact city: in or adjacent to city Goals: reduction in growth of mobility Improve competitive position Infrastructure approach: ICES-investments

50 th Report Spatial Planning Urban networks urban centres and nodes Integrated, self-contained housing / labour markets, self-sufficient urban functions Entire territory of network city is search area no longer concentric urbanization Layer approach

51 Layer approach occupation yr network yr ground >100 yr

52 2005 National Spatial Strategy (NR) Emphasis on spatial development lowering restrictions Shift of power: local when possible, central when necessary (subsidiarity) Basic quality standards (environmental legislation) Layer approach: processes in different layers more in relation to each other
