  • 2.5.2 Characteristics of Specific Land Use Categories (1) Commercial
    THE STRATEGIC URBAN DEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN STUDY FOR A SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE GREATER CAIRO REGION IN THE ARAB REPUBLIC OF EGYPT Final Report (Volume 2) 2.5.2 Characteristics of Specific Land Use Categories (1) Commercial area Commercial areas in GCR can be classified into three basic types: (i) the CBD; (ii) the sub-center which includes the mixed use for commercial/business and residential use; and (iii) major shopping malls such the large size commercial facilities in relatively new urban areas. The CBD is located in downtown areas, where there are mixed-use buildings that were established long ago and partly accommodate shops and stores. The major sub-centers in the main agglomeration are Shobra, Abasia, Zamalek, Heliopolis, Nasr city, Maadi in Cairo governorate and Mohandeseen, Dokki, Giza in Giza governorate. The recent trend following the mid-1990’s can been seen in the construction of shopping malls which are commercial complexes comprising a movie theater, restaurants, retail shops, and sufficient parking space or a parking building attached. These suburban shopping malls are mainly located in Nasr city, Heliopolis city, Maadi, Shobra, and Giza. Source: JICA study team Figure 2.5.3 Location of Major Commercial Areas in main agglomeration (2) Industrial area The following map shows location of concentration of industrial areas in Study area. There are seven industrial areas in NUCs, five industrial areas under governorates, and two public free zones in the study area. The number of registered factories is 13,483 with a total area of 76,297 ha. Among those registered factories, 3 % of factories can be categorized as large-scale which have an investment cost of more than LE10 million, or more than 500 employees.

  • Informal Housing in Cairo: Are Ashwa’Iyyat Really the Problem?
    Informal Housing in Cairo: Are Ashwa’iyyat Really the Problem? Shawn O’Donnell A map of the informal settlements of Greater Cairo Source: Sims (2003, p.5) Page 2 Informal settlements are widely viewed as a contemporary urban ‘problem’ in the Global South. Moreover, their production and proliferation, a widespread global phenomenon, has become the urban ‘problem’ of the 21st century to be solved. Few recognize informal settlements as producing housing solutions for the vast majority of urban residents in the Global South or acknowledge the economic and social contributions, as well as participation, of those who live there. Furthermore, those who live in informal settlements, areas blamed for producing social ills, are commonly viewed as marginal to mainstream society and as unproductive citizens in a modern city. Cairo is one city that has experienced tremendous urbanization in the form of informal settlements, labeled ashwa’iyyat; 1 over half of the city’s residents live in informal areas (70%).2 Similar to informal settlements in other cities, the ashwa’iyyat in Cairo are commonly viewed by the state and non‐settlement residents as a problem; in their view, these settlements produce social ills and violate the modern, cosmopolitan image they hold for Cairo. Problems are solved based on how they are framed. Employing a new perception of informal housing, which relies on particular understandings of the ‘city,’ urbanization, and what it means to be ‘modern’ and ‘cosmopolitan,’ the 1 Ashwa’iyyat is the Arabic word used in Egypt for informal housing settlements or slums. It literally means ‘random’ or ‘haphazard.’ The Egyptian government uses the terms aswha’iyyat, informal settlements/areas, and slums interchangeably, and U.N.

  • Cairo Traffic Congestion Study Executive Note May 2014
    CAIRO TRAFFIC CONGESTION STUDY EXECUTIVE NOTE MAY 2014 The World Bank Group The World Bank Group Acknowledgments This study was undertaken by a World Bank team led by Ziad Nakat (Transport Specialist) and including Santiago Herrera (Lead Economist) and Yassine Cherkaoui (Infrastructure Specialist), and it was executed by Ecorys in collaboration with Sets and Cambridge Systematics. Funding for the study was generously provided by the Government of Netherlands; the Multi Donor Trust Fund “Addressing Climate Change in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Region” supported by Italy’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the European Commission; the Energy Sector Management Assistance Program and the World Bank. 1 Cairo Traffic Congestion Study I Executive Note I. Introduction The Greater Cairo Metropolitan Area (GCMA), with more than 19 million inhabitants, is host to more than one-fifth of Egypt’s population. The GCMA is also an important contributor to the Egyptian economy in terms of GDP and jobs. The population of the GCMA is expected to further increase to 24 million by 2027, and correspondingly its importance to the economy will also increase. Traffic congestion is a serious problem in the GCMA with large and adverse effects on both the quality of life and the economy. In addition to the time wasted standing still in traffic, time that could be put to more productive uses, congestion results in unnecessary fuel consumption, causes additional wear and tear on vehicles, increases harmful emissions lowering air quality, increases the costs of transport for business, and makes the GCMA an unattractive location for businesses and industry.

  • Informal Settlement Expansion in Greater Cairo and Government Responses
    CAIRO A shelter of their own: informal settlement expansion in Greater Cairo and government responses Manal El-Batran and Christian Arandel SUMMARY: This paper describes why there has been a rapid growth of informal settlements in Cairo when there was an over- supply of formal housing, and why most new informal settle- ments develop on scarce agricultural land while large stretches of desert nearby remain mostly undeveloped. The paper also re- views the changes in the Egyptian government’s housing and land policies over the last 40 years, including attempts to up- grade informal settlement and to combine upgrading with the development of settlements for middle-income households.

SD of peri-urban areas (PUA) has been tackled by a limited number of studies, unlike that of urban areas or cities. The PUAs of Greater Cairo (GC) are no exception; no study had addressed the state of the PUAs in terms of SD. Thus, this study sought to measure and evaluate the progress towards the SD in the PUAs of Greater Cairo, Egypt. Thirteen indicators were extracted from selected documents of the competent international organizations to measure and evaluate the performance of SD in the study area. The study resulted in a variety of charts and maps to explain the progress of SD in each municipality of the PUAs and then classify these municipalities based on their performance in sustainability indicators.

  • 1 Informality and Access to Services Among Youth of Cairo's Informal
    Informality and access to services among youth of Cairo’s informal urban neighborhoods Rasha Hassan, Population Council Egypt Maia Sieverding, American University of Beirut Rania Roushdy, American University of Cairo Informality is a defining characteristic of urban life in Egypt, spanning the extensive informal economy to the hidden fees associated with ostensibly free public services. The growth of informal urban settlements – known in Egypt as ashwaiyyat – is often attributed to the failure of urban housing policy and is a physical manifestation of the spread of informal markets that parallel many of Egypt’s formal institutions. Popular and public policy discourse in Egypt has constructed the ashwaiyyat as problematic; they are widely seen as areas of insecurity, poverty and at times extremism (Bayat & Denis, 2000; Ismail, 2006). Young people growing up in informal areas are often assumed to be facing multiple inequalities of opportunity compared to formal urban dwellers. Yet there is substantial variation in poverty levels, security and access to services in the ashwaiyyat, blurring the boundaries between informal and formal neighborhoods of Greater Cairo. In this paper, we draw on representative survey of nearly 3,000 young people aged 15 – 29 and complementary qualitative interviews with youth in informal areas of Greater Cairo to examine how access to and experiences with formal services and institutions influence young people’s lived experiences in the ashwaiyyat. We also explore how youth negotiate their inclusion/exclusion from formal services, and the informal mechanisms of social support, economic relationships and conflict resolution that they and their communities rely on in the face of unreliable public services.

  • Change in the Urban Spatial Structure of the Greater Cairo Metropolitan Area, Egypt
    International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, Volume XXXVIII-4/C21 CHANGE IN THE URBAN SPATIAL STRUCTURE OF THE GREATER CAIRO METROPOLITAN AREA, EGYPT Ahmed Abdelhalim M. Hassan Institute of Landscape Ecology, Muenster University, Muenster, Germany, e-mail [email protected] Volume XXXVIII, ISSN: 1628-1777 KEY WORDS: Greater Cairo; pixel-based and object-based classifications; land use/ land cover (LU/LC); change detection analysis, ABSTRACT: Since the 1980s, rapid population growth and urbanization have become issues in big cities like Greater Cairo (GC). As a consequence of explosive growth, the living conditions of Cairo Metropolis deteriorate. Development trends of the last twenty years have increased general wealth and modernization, this sets out how GC megacity is creating an increased demand for land combined with environmental degradation. Planning a sustainable development of mega cities requires understanding of physical change of the main environmental drivers. However, this talk will be concerned with monitoring and analysis of dynamic environment changes to capture and refine the urban patterns in Greater Cairo Metropolis on the basis of pixel-based and object-based classifications. Satellite images (TM, ETM+, & Spot) of different dates and resolutions, and ground truth data collected from available maps, field observation, and personal experience were used to execute the image segmentation analysis to reveal urban patterns and expansions. By using Erdas Imagine, and eCognition Developer software, land use / land cover image classifications were constructed, which detect regimes and trends in land changes. Two main types of urban patterns could be detected (passing from centre to periphery). The first one is informal and the second one is formal building.

  • A Review and Insights for Eleven Years of Urban Microclimate Research Towards a New Egyptian ERA of Low Carbon, Comfortable and Energy-Efficient Housing Typologies

This has motivated urban microclimate research in Egypt. The main objective was initially to improve outdoor thermal comfort. Therefore, Egyptian research started with assessing different existing patterns for the sake of climate responsive and sustainable urban design practice characterized with low carbon, thermal comfort and energy efficiency in such a hot arid conditions. That is why the review workflow of this article has followed a design progress workflow that led to solving design complexities with regard to generating housing urban forms on a microclimate basis rather than an article regular review workflow in order to extract the research gaps and conclude insights.

    THE STRATEGIC URBAN DEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN STUDY FOR A SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE GREATER CAIRO REGION IN THE ARAB REPUBLIC OF EGYPT Final Report (Volume 2) CHAPTER 2 EXISTING CONDITIONS, CONTEXT AND ISSUES OF THE STUDY AREA 2.1 Natural Setting and Environment 2.1.1 Meteorological Conditions The Study area belongs to the subtropical arid climate regions. Winter, from November to February, is the rainy and cold season. The annual average precipitation is between 20 and 30mm. The average monthly precipitations are between 10 to 15mm in November and December, and 5 to 10mm in January (data between 1995 and 2000)1. Rainfall patterns are locally influenced by land use and desert areas. The average temperatures from June to September exceed 25°C, with daily peaks that could exceed 40°C. The other main characteristics of the meteorological conditions in the Study area are: x The predominance of NW to SE winds during the year x The dust and sandstorms associated with the hot and dry winds of the desert, during the transitional seasons like in spring and autumn x The modification of the natural patterns of local humidity and temperature due to urban sprawl 2.1.2 Topography and Morphology The Greater Cairo Region is located at the narrow end of the delta area, at the upstream point of the division of the river Nile into the main 2 branches of Damietta, and Rosetta (also called the Rashid branch by the Egyptians). The alluvial agricultural plain is then widening to the north (wide end of the delta). The general altitude of the river Nile plain, which is urbanized, is at less than 50m.
