Sea Level Rise Protection Strategy

2040 In the buffer zone, different approaches can be implemented in reponse to the specific local needs. For hard edge conditions, an intermediate recreational zone designation could be created on the new land prior to developers.

Strategic Relocation

2017

2030

A large proportion of the informal settlements are being encroached by the rising sea level. Some of the worst condition housing are located on the fringe of the water and subject to serious damage in flooding season

The most urgent task is to strategically relocate the impacted residents to safe area with decent quality housing and amenity infrastructures. Schools, markets, churches, and other facilities should provide a better quality life there.

The Hard edge approach will be based on the elevated land and evolve into multiple types of formal developments that create density, public spaces, and job opportunities in a new urban district. Nicely vegetated pedestrian promenades creates an active waterfront. elevated [hill] as waterfront park space

New District Mixed-use Corridor

Proposed Master Plan The proposal tries to provide a systematic response for the 5.08 sq km area to manage urban growth under pressing risks of climate change, urban water sanitation, and development equity.

Relocation District BRT Corridor

The Corridor Approach For both the new district and the relocation zone, a series of corridor typologies are proposed to organize the development process that integrate mobility, business and urban ecology to facilitate efficient and effective future growth.

2050 (Hard Edge)

Relocation District Canal Park Corridor

2050 (Soft Edge) The Soft edge can evolve into two branches given different specific site conditions. The hill scenario will use the earth from previous dredging to build a protective hill as a dike that also accommodates walking trails and additional road connectivity. In areas with higher elevation, the treatment scenario will utilize the biological water treatment methods and create a purifying band that serves the community.
