Existing Settlements

BEACON CITIES, SETTLEMENTS, NEW AND REFURBISHMENTS

The new Corridor routes will necessitate the creation of new significant towns known as “Corridor Beacon Cities”.

These new communities will include energy-efficient modular housing systems. The existing infrastructure solutions will either be upgraded or they will be decommissioned and new solutions will be implemented.

Corridor Beacon Cities are intended to be a mixed-use areas, with six zones:

  • Modern world-class inland dry port.
  • An industrial district adjacent to the dry port.
  • A financial district. (Central Business Distric)
  • An education and innovation zone; green zones, parks, and resorts.
  • A residential area will be suggested and implemented as appropriate. (Beacon Cities will be built to support 1 to 2 million inhabitants)

Adequate water supply, guaranteed uninterrupted electricity, sanitation, including solid waste management, efficient urban mobility and safe public transportation, affordable housing – for all social levels, robust IoT connectivity and digitalization, good governance, especially e-governance and citizen participation, sustainable environment, safety and security of the citizens, particularly women, are the core infrastructure elements for all settlements, whether they are new or refurbished.
