Urban sprawl, first highways and ring road • Most offices moved to the first belt suburbs except non cost-sensitive activities: city centres
becoming shopping areas (small scale deliveries) for expensive goods and living areas for
2015s Network City “double income, no kids” households.
¨cars needed to go to the working areas/malls outside first and second belt.
• Industry offices moved out to the first belt area as also medium income families while
manufacturing facilities and low-medium income families relocated in the second and third
belt areas with logistics centres created on 2nd belt periphery.
• ‘Green wave’ families living outside cities in outer suburban area. Hypermarkets and malls
mostly created inside the third belt low cost area (large scales deliveries).
Third suburban area and cities along the highways
created, ring road overblown by the urban sprawl
¨cars needed to go from outer suburban areas to join the intermodal public transport and
working areas in third and second belt.

Example 1 : Johannesburg and Pretoria becomes one BIG Mega City called “Jo-Toria”

Example 2 : Town Planning could evolve with Offices and Homes Adjacent to each other or within a
