MANAGING NEW EGYPTIAN URBAN COMMUNITIES TO DEVELOP THE QUALIT

The concept of establishing new cities depends on their management, which is one of the most important factors for their success or failure in achieving their goals. Therefore the managing methods are very important issues in various phases of setting up new cities. Whereas Egypt applies the policy of “central executive management” not the “interactive management” system. At the beginning, the Egyptian Ministry of Housing depended on its main two authorities the (NUCA) and the (GOPP) for planning implementation in managing and monitoring phases.
These management policies caused a lot of urban problems such as the acute lack of parking lots, parks and green areas, absence of public plazas and pedestrian networks, alteration in the usage of land. Such as the fossilized forest as a “Natural reserve” protected area that was changed to a housing area, and the “west Arabilla” compound which became a district park. This is in addition to features that are considered very risky for public safety such as the inappropriate positioning of lighting and advertising fixtures that hinder pedestrians from using platforms and pathways. There are also some complications due to improper design and implementation of roads, for example the sudden narrowing of roads at critical locations and the inappropriate width of roads relevant to traffic dense areas. All these aspects affect people comfort and life quality .
