Abstract

Activity centers, CBD decentralization, and growth poles are interlinked and play an essential role in future urbanization. CBD decentralization formulates strategies for alternative growth nodes by analyzing activity centers that promote a better city. Improper planning approaches result in bottlenecks in city infrastructure that inhibits economic growth and promotes congestion. There needs to be a concerted approach to perceive the pulse of the situation in such areas and integrate future growth through planning activity centers/zones, growth poles, and CBD decentralization for the city. This process is primarily streamlined and reinforced by understanding the present state of health of the area, current contribution and role of activity zones, analysis of the future growth, aspirations of the stakeholders, their willingness to accept future proposals, and the future demand of proposed areas in terms of services and network. This research understands the same for the city of Siliguri, the gateway of northeast India.
