URBAN HUBS
What are urban hubs?
An urban hub is a precinct within the marginalized peripheral township that is at the point of maximum connectivity, clustered around a transport hub. These are envisaged to serve as town centres to the townships in which they are located. Urban hubs are established as a 800m walkshed around the transport hub. Urban hubs should be walkable with pedestrian-friendly sidewalks. They should be designed and developed or upgraded for higher density, mixed land use and real estate, and should feature social amenities and services.
