Planning on the edge the context for planning at the rural-urban fringe
Gallent, Nick
Planning on the edge the context for planning at the rural-urban fringe - Abingdon Routledge 2006 - xvi, 232pp 24cm.
Part one: the rural-urban fringe -- Part two: multiple fringes -- Part three: planning on the edge -- References.
Investigates what the rural-urban fringe, planning's last frontier, is and what has underpinned its development. Examines the context for planning and other forms of policy intervention at the fringe and how in future the edges of towns and cities might be more effectively managed and planned. Challenges the wisdom of over-designing landscapes, arguing that the fringe is an integral and inevitable part of the urban system and a product of largely organic processes.
