  • Satellite Towns

    Satellite Towns

    24 Satellite Towns Introduction 'Satellite town' was a term used in the year immediately after the World War I as an alternative to Garden City. It subsequently developed a much wider meaning to include any town that is closely related to or dependent on a larger city. The first specific usage of the word ‘satellite town’ was in 1915 by G.R. Taylor in ‘ Satellite Cities’ referring to towns around Chicago, St. Louis and other American cities where industries had escaped congestion and crafted manufacturer’s town in the surrounding area. The new town is planned and built to serve a particular local industry, or as a dormitory or overspill town for people who work in and nearby metropolis. Satellite Town, can also be defined as a town which is self contained and limited in size, built in the vicinity of a large town or city and houses and employs those who otherwise create a demand for expansion of the existing settlement, but dependent on the parent city to some extent for population and major services. A distinction is made between a consumer satellite (essentially a dormitory suburb with few facilities) and a production satellite (with a capacity for commercial, industrial and other production distinct from that of the parent town, so a new town) town or satellite city is a concept of urban planning and referring to a small or medium-sized city that is near a large metropolis, but predates that metropolis suburban expansion and is atleast partially independent from that metropolis economically. CITIES, URBANISATION AND URBAN SYSTEMS 414 Satellite and Dormitory Towns The suburb of an urban centre where due to locational advantage the residential, industrial and educational centres are developed are known as "satellite or dormitory towns." It has a benefit of providing clean environment and spacious ground for residential and industrial expansion.

According to the Bangladesh Environment Conservation Rules 1997 (GOB, 1997), construction of a power plant project falls under the RED category. Initial Environmental Examination (IEE) followed by Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) including Environmental Management Plan are required for these types of projects for getting environmental clearance from the Department of Environment (DOE). According to the World Bank (1999) operational policy OP 4.01, this project is classified as an Environmental Category A project, requiring an Environmental Assessment for the construction and operation of the project with recommendations for appropriate mitigation and management measures. Since a detailed environmental assessment of the proposed project is being carried out, the DOE has exempted the IEE of the project in response to the request by the Electricity Generation Company of Bangladesh Limited (EGCB).

This transportation system consists of mainly roadway, waterway, airway and railway and bus is one of the most important public transport systems particularly for urban areas. Currently, total number of buses including mini-buses in Dhaka city is 10,214 whereas the total number of vehicles is 11,15,654 which means 2.57% of the total vehicle is bus according to Bangladesh Road Transport Authority (BRTA) data (upto April, 2018). Bus trips constitute 27% of total trips by mechanized modes and passenger kilometer traveled by bus is about 40% of passenger kilometer traveled by mechanized modes. Bus plays a vital role in road transportation system as it can carry a large number of passengers of 30-40% using less road space than a car where it can carry only 5-6% passengers occupying almost same space of road. Dhaka’s existing bus operation is not organized and due to fragmented ownership of buses and multiple bus companies are operating along the same corridors, they are in fierce completion for passengers.

    2 KING OF THE NORTH i KING OF THE NORTH The Sons of Ishmael W www.earthenvessels.org.au E [email protected] ii KING OF THE NORTH Foreword When I first entered into the church, I read a book by Louis Weir titled: The King of the North at Jerusalem. It was quite convincing to me at the time that the King of the North - as referred to in Daniel 11:45 - was the papacy. Many years later, however, I received a study by the late George Burnside who offered a contrasting view. Pr Burnside declared that the King of the North was Turkey, and more specifically, Islam. The evidence he gave was overwhelming, and thoroughly convinced of his teaching, my position changed. Since then, I’ve kept this belief largely to myself. Though in the light of what’s been transpiring in the world of late, I’ve returned to this passage, compelled to share the warnings and signs enclosed within these texts. As terrorist events gain increasing momentum, the prophecy of Daniel 11:45 gains increasing import. Today, more than ever before, correctly identifying the King of the North might very well affect your eternal destiny.

    A Study on the Relationship of Spatial Planning Aspects in Occurrence of Street Crimes in Dhaka City Nakhara: Journal of Environmental Design and Planning Volume 15, December 2018 A Study on the Relationship of Spatial Planning Aspects in Occurrence of Street Crimes in Dhaka City Urmee Chowdhury* / Ishrat Islam** * Faculty of Architectureand Planning, Ahsanullah University of Science and Technology, Bangladesh Corresponding author: [email protected] ** Faculty of Architecture and Planning, Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology, Bangladesh [email protected] ABSTRACT treet crime, like mugging and vehicle theft, are the significant crime problems in every developing S city of the world. The study area for this research is Dhaka city, which is experiencing an situation of increasing street crime. This research focuses on the relationship between spatial planning and street crimes and tries to recommend different strategies for prevention of crime and violence in the streets of Dhaka city by proposing urban design and infrastructure planning. The study tries to assess the relationship from macro to micro level through different spatial and physical planning components. For the detail level study, four Thana (police station) areas have been selected from Dhaka City Corporation area (DCC) according to their physical layout and other characteristics. In this level, the relationship is studied through the association between spatial layout and different physical planning factors like land use along with some elements of streetscape. Space Syntax methodology was applied to assess the impact of spatial configuration in occurrence of street crime with the selected four study area. In the micro level the study reveals that different types of land use with different design elements lead to change in public activity spaces which have impact on occurrence of street crimes.
