Groningen case: from a monocentric compact city policy towards a new urbanisation path between intensification and expansion
This master thesis situates itself in the wider urban sprawl debate that has recently received an increased attention from the European Union, and also in the ongoing debate concerning the changing Dutch planning context. This work builds a bridge between these two debates by examining the impacts that the major Dutch contextual changes have on the local and regional fight against urban sprawl. Moreover, it aims to increase the general understanding of the notion of compactness and to determine which local policies and strategies can be used by the Dutch municipalities to retain their compactness. To achieve these goals, this research focuses on the city of Groningen.
