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.

1 CityClusters in Punjab

The city clustering methodology comprises identifying economically integrated settlements and cities. 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.

2 Hub Citiesand Connectivity 2047

As per guidelines suggested by the Asian Development Bank, 75 – 100 km distance or an hour’s travelling time from a large settlement is widely accepted as a standard for good connectivity of cluster of cities.

3 CityClusters

In order to effectively plan for the cities of Punjab keeping in mind their individual context, the System of Cities framework has identified 17 cities with high economic and social signifi- cance to the province. 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. # # #

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.

The assessment has focused on characteristics such as administrative bound- aries, connectivity, and agricultural activity to identify the physical and econom- ic connections of each hub city with surrounding cities.
