GAMPAHA SRI LANKA


The modern history of human settlements offers both unsustainable and promising examples.In this report we suggests that Gampaha MC together with RDA and UDA seeks to make Gampaha concentrate its growth according to two major patterns:
- on the regional level growth along the link between A1, the Gampaha railway staion and the new CKAH Expressway.
- in the local perspective letting the image of Gampaha be that of a green small-scale town growing its frontage.

The development should be encouraged to grow perpendicular to the expressway and in a linear pattern along the existing roads down towards the railroad stations. Further development around the junction should be prohibited. The railroad-oriented pattern should remain to be the overall strategy for our sustainable urban corridor.
