Material type: materialTypeLabelBookPublisher: Nagarlok: Quarterly Journal of Urban Affairs Description: 52(2), Api-Jun, 2020: p.43-67.Subject(s): Multi-criteria evaluation technique; Indicators, Regeneration Index; Space-use Index In: Nagarlok: Quarterly Journal of Urban AffairsSummary: The urban regeneration of the core area of the cities is a vital strategy that involves various aspects of the physical, social, economic, infrastructural, institutional, and environmental developmental process. If the infrastructure is not maintained on a timely basis in these core areas, it will degenerate. Recent changes in lifestyle and changing patterns of land use and space usage may lead to further degradation in the already existing spaces. The core areas are severely affected by the degeneration phenomena as these spaces are changing their role in society and are generally dominated by a residential setup with mixed land-use. These residential setups over a span of time are transformed into commercial spaces and expand in a vertical direction. This development takes place at the cost of surrounding open spaces and results in over-use of available infrastructure. This process of development reduces per- capita open space at faster rates. The regeneration is an approach to improve these degraded conditions in city core areas. In the present research article, the comparison is made between different wards by using an indicator approach method. The indicators generated will show the current situation of the infrastructure of the city’s core area. The evaluation of the generated indicator for the wards is carried out by a Multi-Criteria Evaluation Technique, which eventually reduces subjectivity in the research approach. - Reproduced

The urban regeneration of the core area of the cities is a vital strategy that involves various aspects of the physical, social, economic, infrastructural, institutional, and environmental developmental process.
