Achieving a Sustainable Urban Form through Land Use Optimisation: Insights from Bekasi City’s Land-Use Plan (2010–2030)
2017
Cities worldwide have been trying to achieve a
sustainable urbanform to handle their rapid urban growth. Many
sustainable urbanforms have been studied and two of them, the
compact cityand the
eco city, were chosen in this study as urban form foundations. Based on these forms, four
sustainable citycriteria (compactness, compatibility, dependency, and suitability) were considered as necessary functions for
land useoptimisation. This study presents a
land useoptimisation as a method for achieving a
sustainable urbanform. Three optimisation methods (particle swarm optimisation, genetic algorithms, and a local search method) were combined into a single hybrid optimisation method for
land usein Bekasi city, Indonesia. It was also used for examining Bekasi city’s
land-use-plan(2010–2030) after optimising current (2015) and future
land use(2030). After current
land useoptimisation, the score of
sustainable citycriteria increased significantly. Three important centres of
land use(commercial, industrial, and residential) were also created through clustering the results. These centres were slightly different from centres of the city plan zones. Additional
land usesin 2030 were predicted using a nonlinear autoregressive neural network with external input. Three scenarios were used for allocating these additional
land usesincluding sustainable development, government policy, and business-as-usual. Future
land useallocation in 2030 found that the sustainable development scenario showed better performance compared to government policy and business-as-usual scenarios.
