Milano 2030 Urban Development Plan

In March 2019, the new Development Plan, entitled “Milan 2030: Vision, construction, strategies, spaces”, was adopted by the municipality. This document replaces the previous plan, dating back to 2012, and identifies in 2030 the first time horizon for the implementation of its policies, articulated around three main themes: •Districts and suburbs •Housing and renting policies •Climate and environment

The ambition of the Plan is to make Milano a city that is much better interconnected with the rest of the world, through five main Goals that guide the urban development of the City in the coming years. The overarching priority, which the Games concept will help to achieve, is to overcome physical, social, and economic barriers between the City centre and the outlying districts.

Vision -

1. Connecting Milano, its metropolitan area, and the world – The City development till 2030 will be based on a close integration between urban planning and mobility, to create a highly accessible city, enjoying a good balance between demand for mobility, quality of life and environmental sustainability. 2. An attractive and inclusive city full of opportunity - Supporting a businessoriented environment to attract foreign direct investments, offering new and better job opportunities and appropriate solutions to citizens’ need for residential housing are the objectives of a city like Milano. 3. A green, liveable, resilient city - Sustainability takes centre stage in the Milano 2030 Urban

Development Plan, which aims to create a city-wide metropolitan park by connecting the

Northern and the Southern parks, through the so-called ’Environmental regeneration areas’. 4. One city – 88 districts to call by name –

The games concept will be truly inclusive of the entire city, consistently with the vision of

Milano to enhance and bring closer all its 88 districts, thanks to better quality services, more efficient and widespread public transportation, and improved urban spaces, for the benefit of local communities, and most importantly, the more fragile categories. 5. A city that regenerates itself - The objective is to extend the positive effects of the event on those city districts that would risk marginalisation or exclusion from the City’s economic and social growth. Incentives to reclaim rundown and abandoned buildings will help to increase the overall urban quality of the City.
