 1. Introduction

Ø Plan and development commission:-

§ Former plan institute and is Restructured in 2017

§ Preparation of plans

ü Spatial:- Structure plan and local development detail

plans

ü Socio-economic:- short, medium and long term plans

§ Plan Implementation follow up monitoring

 2. 10th Structural Plan of Addis Ababa

Ø Until 2017 about 9 city wide plans (Master

plans and Structural plans)
Ø The 10th structure Plan is approved in 2017,
Ø principles:-
• Intensive uses of land and space;
• Decentralization of urban activities;
• Promotion of mixed/compatible land use;
• Integration of different components along
activity spine/mass transport lines
• Increased foresight and practicality of
plan.
 2. 10th Structural Plan of Addis Ababa

Ø Vertical expansion principle of city development and

polycentric organization connected with high density

corridors.

Ø Basic services and major facilities are organized at the

central area.

Ø Transport, housing, social and economic sphere are

focus areas of the new structure plan.

 2. 10th Structural Plan of Addis Ababa

q Use transport infrastructure to guide the major land

development of the city

ü High Density Corridor development

Its major spatial components are ፡-

§ Land uses

§ Road and transport

§ Building height
 2. TOD and the Structure plan

v Emphasizes Introducing TOD to manage edge settlements:

Ø Every physical development will be located within walking

distance accessible to the mass transport line.

Ø Transport as an organizing element.

v Gives due consideration to the TOD concept within its proposals.

 2. TOD and the Structure plan

2.1. TOD in Land use proposal

Ø High density mixed residence along
the mass transport routes:-
• Depth of 80m to 120m from main
transport lines
• At least 40% residence share and with
minimum of 150hu/ha.
• Greater mix of uses to reduce travel
distances and the cost of travel
o Residents can live close to work and
services
Ø Polycentric urban development and
decentralization of activities

2.3. TOD in Centers proposal

2..3.1. Main city Center

• walk-able core that ensures pedestrian

comfort is a central theme.

• increasing permeability
• Providing pedestrian-only streets,
• more than 50% of the street for non-
motorized transport with green infrastructure.
• Develop for a central transport terminal at
La Gare.
• 2 major malls at La Gare and LRT stations.

v 2km axis along the southern corridor.
With an area coverage of 175ha
v Important transport hub and modal
interchange for the southern corridor
v Its concept adapts the principle of
TOD
• Optimization of connectivity
• Pedestrian friendly compact development
• Social mix (social inclusion)

v Some of TOD elements are:
§ A 600m long public space with iconic
buildings.
§ Giving access to all stations of mass
transit
§ Platform that accommodates the
