Punjab Spatial Strat e gy 2017-2047 System of Cities The System of Cities Model describes the interaction between different tiered cities and their functions within a larger urban network. The model helps address the primary spatial (planning) issues faced by Punjab. The current arrangement of large cities in the province suggests that there is an imbalance of resources in Punjab, which further aggra- vates social and economic disparities in the province. The system of cities, as shown below, will only work if all tiers of cities have adequate connectivity, human resource, capital, and infrastructure to perform out their respective functions in the larger system. Lack of understanding of the system of cities in case of Punjab, has enabled ad-hoc planning practices in region. Absence of data, ineffi- cient policy implementation, lack of transparency, and low level of citizen participation has encouraged an environment of ‘quick fixes’ that leads to long term damage and consequently higher debt.

The clustering concept focuses designating a ‘Hub’ city surrounded by other settlements. The idea is to stop thinking of cities only in terms of their overall size but rather on the overall population of a cluster of cities; with the hub providing all necessary services for the region.

These are termed hub cities and have been categorized based on their population. As per this classification, there is one Mega hub (Lahore), 8 divisional headquar- ter hubs, and 8 regional hubs as shown in the table below. # # # Mega City Hub Divisional HQ Hubs Regional Hubs Lahore Rawalpindi Gujrat Faisalabad Sialkot Gujranwala Jhang Sargodha Mianwali Sahiwal Taxila Multan Rahim Yar Khan Bahawalpur Muzaffargarh DG Khan Chakwal 4 17 EconomicHubs These hub cities are supported by several smaller cities in their vicinity, in form of economic activity, transportation of goods, access to health and social services, and contribution to the regional supply chain. Each hub, with its respective cities, forms a cluster.
