New Towns and New Communities

New towns and new communities are developed near urban cities to create new living areas and to relieve congestions in the cities. A carefully planned infrastructure system and a well-planned development scheme are keys to success to the development of new towns and new communities. Infrastructure system includes site preparation, roadway and parking, storm drainage, power supply and distribution, water supply and distribution, sewage network and treatment plant, garbage collection and incinerator, telecommunication networks, etc. Common duct network to store all utilities in one structure is often used for easy installation as well as inspection and maintenance. A well-planned development scheme involves the support from public sector to create incentives for private developers to build in retail areas, commercial buildings, and residential buildings. In the past decade, MAA was engaged by both public and private sectors to provide feasibility studies, planning, design and construction management services for new towns and new communities.
