‘NCR to shrink in size, vertical growth to be encouraged’
The draft Regional Plan-2041 for the National Capital Region (NCR) that would reduce its size, while promoting vertical growth, was likely to be published for feedback in December, a senior government official said on Wednesday.
A version of the draft plan was approved by the National Capital Region Planning Board (NCRPB) at its meeting on October 12. In a statement that day, the Housing and Urban Affairs Ministry stated that the plan would be notified by March 2022.
While some changes had been made since then, the plan would lead to the shrinking of the NCR and promotion of vertical development, as the initial draft had proposed. The draft was likely to be published for comments from the public this month, the official noted.
