10 2 Discussion 10

11 Formulation of Development Vision Development vision shows uniqueness and direction of Mombasa which can be shared with stakeholders Points: What are the key words for describing Mombasa? How do you want Mombasa to be in 2040? What is the role of Mombasa in achieving Kenya Vision 2030? What is the role of Mombasa in the Northern Economic Corridor (Gate City)? Development Vision Economy Environment Governance Social and Culture Kenya Vision 2030: A globally competitive an prosperous nation with a high quality of life by 2030 Vision proposed in KMP: A vibrant world class commercial hub of excellence that promotes diversity, natural environment and heritage 11

12 Development Vision of Mombasa County (Draft) Development Vision: A premier gateway port city that upholds diversity and heritage Pillar 1: Vibrant Economy Pillar 2: High Quality of Life (social & culture) Pillar 3: Good Governance Pillar 4: Environment and energy Development vision of Mombasa is to support achieving Kenya Vision 2030 Mombasa as original gateway to Eastern Africa will be maintained and enhanced Two distinctive characteristics of Mombasa, namely Port/Logistics and Tourism, will be promoted hand in hand Tangible and intangible heritage will be preserved and utilized Wellbeing of people of Mombasa will be promoted and sustained 12

13 Three Pillars or Strategies Vibrant Economy Commercial/logistics promotion through efficient transport system, land use, infrastructure/urban services that contribute to improve conditions of Mombasa and strengthen Northern Economic Corridor Tourism development through utilization of resources and heritage, developing infrastructure, strengthening services High quality of life (social & culture) Provide social facilities to those needed particularly education and health Improve housing conditions Preserve and utilize tangible and intangible heritage (strengthening island function) Good Governance Transparent urban management which promotes infrastructure development, urban facility development and land use control Preservation and utilization of heritage through land use management and tourism promotion Environment and energy Coastal erosion Degradation of creeks, water contamination Flooding, climate change, solid waste 13

14 Points for Improvement (Comments from JICA) High quality of life (social & culture) Need to define high quality where aim for housing is for low income group, and basic infrastructure has to be developed high quality implies to provide basic needs for all population, or one step higher than basic, or simple relative comparison 14

15 STRUCTURE PLAN 15

16 Urban Issues (1):Regional Characteristics Mvita (Mombasa Island) (10,000 p/km2) highly populated area, little population increase Mixed use (residential, port, industry, administrative, commercial) Need to improve transport network in the island, improve efficiency of land use (avoid congestion in some economic activity) Why re-building of building does not happen? Nyali (South of Kisauni, Kongowea) (8,100 p/km2) Low density, high income residential area Individual houses are changing into high rise buildings (apartments, offices) Need to regulate development to secure comfortable residential area Kisauni (Bamburi) (2,369p/km2) Highly populated area, labor, slum (south), underdeveloped (north) Surrounded by water and hilly geography Planned development is necessary 16

17 Urban Issues (2):Regional Characteristics Jomvu (Miritini) (3,300p/km2) Connecting point of northern bypass, southern bypass, northern corridor, SCR Industry, CFSs, heavy traffic congestion Urban development and transport/public transport has to be developed together to avoid further congestion Changamwe (8,300p/km2) Industry CFS, airport, logistics facilities Heavily congested area and causing negative impact to transport in island Public transport has to be improved to reduce congestion Likoni (3,872p/km2) Low income resident. Many migrants (half of population) Development is left behind due to poor access Use ferry to commute to island Living environment and access has to be improved SEZ 17

32 Structure Plan/Spatial Pattern (Points of Discussion) Follow the De-Centralized Pattern of development Twin city development Multi core development: multifunction in urban areas (residential, commercial, mix use) Sub-Center with Green Belt Development Where is ideal location of sub-centers: land availability Population allocation by areas Justification of population allocation Related to urban development Transport network Strengthening of existing urban centers and support new sub-center development Linking Islands with mainland Improve urban function Residential and commercial: Nyali, Kisauni, Likoni SEZ: Likoni Logistics: Changamwe (sea port, airport), Jomvu 32

33 Northern Bypass Development Directions Strengthening of CBD in Island Improve transport network and SGR land use Strengthening of existing urban functions Development of new urban core in suburb (Mainland North, West, South) Link with transport network How many new urban core is necessary Designation of controlled areas SEZ Jomvu Changamwe Island Existing major regional corridor Major Development Factors Bypasses by 2020 SEZ and internal corridor plan

34 Northern Bypass Transport network Alternative 1: Small Loop Type development Transport network is organized by compilation of SGR small loop which enables transport to circulate efficiently Industrial loop, commercial loop, logistics loop Jomvu Changamwe CBD in Island Existing major urban areas Existing major regional corridor Island Major Development Factors Bypasses by 2020 SEZ SEZ and internal corridor plan

35 Northern Bypass Transport network Alternative 2: Radial Network Northern Bypass, Southern Bypass, SEZ, Port Improve transport network (Present regional road network, Major pipelined developments in near future: Connect bypass with radial road SGR Jomvu Changamwe Island CBD in Island Existing major urban areas Existing major regional corridor Major Development Factors Bypasses by 2020 SEZ SEZ and internal corridor plan

36 One of Alternatives of Transport Network (including ring type structure) 2 nd Nyali location As proposed by JST and Likoni Bridge location As proposed by JST SGR Jomvu 6 7 Changamwe 2 1 Northern Bypass 5 1) The Shimanji-Kipevu Link, will divert HVs from Makupa causeway, provide direct connection to Kipevu Link from berth 1-9 area. Try to use the existing bridge in the port. 2) Proposal 2 nd Nyali Bridge, forming a big circular road from Nyali avoiding Kongowea and old city, running along the peripheral of the island. This will give connection from rich Nyali car user to Kipevu link. 3)Proposal of Likoni Bridge (Gateway Bridge), connecting the Nyali- Lumumba ring road to the SEZ arterial, serving Kilifi-Kwale regionwide traffic as well as Nyali-SEZ business traffic. 4) The internal missing ling in the island, connecting industrial area to Moi, and Likoni ferry, to complete ring function in the Island. 3 4 Island 5) The ring road functions in Nyali/ Kisauni districts. The JST does not care about locations and alignments. Proposed major regional corridor With lower priority or Optional Vertically separated SEZ 8 6) The ring road functions in Jomvu/ Changamwe districts. The JST does not care about locations and alignments. 7) Third Nyali bridge function proposal, if neecssary. However, it will cost due to long span of bridge, and need serious feasibility check. 8) The ring road functions in Likoni districts. The JST does not care about locations and alignments.

37 Types of Structure Plan CBD CBD CBD One core system (mono core) 1970s Suburb development without network formation (present trend) What type of development pattern in suitable? CBD SC CBD CBD Twin city development CBD and suburban development Sub-center system (Multi core development) 37

38 Image of Structure Plan Twin City Development CBD and suburban development Sub-center system (Multi core development) There is development of two strong nodes [Positive aspect] Strong interconnectivity with high technology transport among the two nodes. [Negative aspect] No other towns develops in the region. Mombasa island Miritini Mombasa island Bamburi There is no dominating single settlement; all nodes of the polycentric network have the same relevance of spatial participation [Positive aspect] Better mobility will be maintained by decentralising the CBD Accelerated growth of subcentres Living condition in CBD will be maintained and more people will live in the suburbs with better living condition and lifestyle CBD: Mombasa Suburb: Miriniti, Likoni, Kongowea, Bamburi, Likoni Development of minor settlements along the transport corridor connecting strong nodes (subcenters). [Positive aspect] Better mobility will be maintained by decentralising the CBD Living condition in CBD will be maintained and more people will live in the suburbs with better living condition and lifestyle Strong axial development with strong polar forms. Multi-function in the sub-centers [Other feature] Multi modal transport along corridors is required CBD: Mombasa Sub-Centers: Minirini, Bamburi, Likoni 38

39 Northern Bypass Twin City Development CBDs Island-Miritini Island-Bamburi Existing urban function/centers SGR Jomvu Changamwe Existing major regional corridor Island Major Development Factors Bypasses by 2020 SEZ SEZ and internal corridor plan

40 Northern Bypass Sub-Center Development Sub-centers will be developed outskirts of county boundary (Miritini, SGR Bamburi/Mwembel engeza, Pungu/Vijiweni Supporting urban function is developed between sub-centers Nyali is kept as residential function to avoid commercial development Jomvu Changamwe Island CBD in Island Existing urban function/centers New urban cores in suburb in future Existing major regional corridor Major Development Factors Bypasses by 2020 SEZ SEZ and internal corridor plan

41 Further Discussion Select 3 alternatives of structure plan Identify urban structure: CBD, Sub-Centers Bring 3 alternatives to public meeting Detail discussion by areas (island, mainland) 41
