Abstract

 Egypt has an extensive uninhabited area on the eastern and the western
desert. The populated areas are about 8% of the whole area of Egypt. The study
focuses on developing economic, social, touristic, and industrial growth through
enhancing planning, urban development, and government's policies. Across the last
fifty years there was an awkward planning policies and urban development plans
for new cities in Egypt. Still, a more professional posture is required to enhance the
planning policies of the unbuilt environment. Egypt across the last fifty years used
two different planning approaches in its way for solving the problem of population
growth and the concentration of the population around the Nile valley.
This paper aims to explore Egypt's policy of planning the new cities and
how Egypt can develop new regulations and policies to enhance and utilize the
potential of unused land in Egypt. This is in addition to identifying the most
appropriate planning approach that is compatible with Egypt's conditions. In order
for this paper to reach its objectives, it will conduct a comparative analysis between
the two urban planning approaches pursued by the state to identify the advantages
and disadvantages of each, and to recommend the most efficient and sustainable
approach.
