‘Urban planning can benefit cities, improve standard of living’
This centripetal nature of the city creates intense pressure on the economic and spatial structure of urban systems such as on land, housing, services and facilities like hospitals, educational institutions, transport, telecommunication systems, and energy supply amongst others. This is because the provisions of these facilities are expanding at rates slower than the rates of growth of the urban population thus creating a wide margin between demand and supply of urban infrastructural facilities and services.
