History of City Planning in the City of Yokohama
History of City Planning in the City of Yokohama City Planning Division, Planning Department, Housing & Architecture Bureau, City of Yokohama 1. Overview of the City of Yokohama (1) Location/geographical features Yokohama is located in eastern Kanagawa Prefecture at 139° 27’ 53” to 139° 43’ 31” East longitude and 35° 18’ 45” to 35° 35’ 34” North latitude. It faces Tokyo Bay to the east and the cities of Yamato, Fujisawa, and Machida (Tokyo) to the west. The city of Kawasaki lies to the north, and the cities of Kamakura, Zushi, and Yokosuka are to the south. Yokohama encompasses the largest area of all municipalities in the prefecture and is the prefectural capital. There are also rolling hills running north-south in the city’s center. In the north is the southernmost end of Tama Hills, and in the south is the northernmost end of Miura Hills that extends to the Miura Peninsula. A flat tableland stretches east-west in the hills, while narrow terraces are partially formed along the rivers running through the tableland and hills. Furthermore, valley plains are found in the river areas and coastal lowland on the coastal areas. Reclaimed land has been constructed along the coast so that the shoreline is almost entirely modified into manmade topography. (2) Municipal area/population trends The municipality was formed in 1889 and established the City of Yokohama. Thereafter, the municipal area was expanded, a ward system enforced, and new wards created, resulting in the current 18 wards (administrative divisions) and an area of 435.43km2. Although the population considerably declined after WWII, it increased by nearly 100,000 each year during the period of high economic growth.

Good Practice of TOD 1) Overview 3.12 TOD Has Long Been a Key Concept for Both Transportation and Urban Development in Many Large Cities in Japan
Project for Studying the Implementation of Integrated UMRT and Urban Development for Hanoi in Vietnam FINAL REPORT – MAIN TEXT I 3.2 Good Practice of TOD 1) Overview 3.12 TOD has long been a key concept for both transportation and urban development in many large cities in Japan. Nowadays, Tokyo is the largest metropolitan area in the world with a total population of over 30 million. Yet, Tokyo is known for being one of the most competitive, livable and environmental-friendly city in the world. Although Tokyo suffers from traffic congestions, people and visitors can travel relatively smoothly among various social and business activities. This is largely due to the fact that Tokyo has an extensive urban rail network, which has been developed both by the public and the private sectors for long in the process of rapid urbanization. Therefore, there are many cases and experiences of Tokyo that can be used as a good reference for the future development of Hanoi. Some representative examples are shown in the following sections. 2) Smart Growth of Cities Based on TOD 3.13 A key role of TOD is to promote expansion of urban areas and accommodate increasing population in a sustainable manner, meaning that the people are provided with affordable housing and improved living environment, while mobility and accessibility to work places, schools and other services are concurrently provided through high-quality public transport. Developments of compact urban areas are encouraged along the rail lines. 3.14 Integrated development of new towns and suburban railway is one of the most characteristic experiences during the time of rapid urban expansion of large-cities in Japan, especially Tokyo and Osaka metropolitan areas.
