Transport Sector Planning in Greater Beirut, Lebanon - Euromedina

In closing• “Beirut's recent history - war and reconstruction -lead us to look at the city through the lenses ofexceptionality. But today's planning agenda (asidentified in the National Master Plan by Dar al-Handasah and the IAURIF) has much incommon with several developing cities in theworld:– uncontrolled urbanization,– environmental damage and– the concentration of urban transportation along themain coastal corridor.”Eric Verdeil @ www.worldviewcities.org
