Urban planning is concerned with the usage of the land and its urban environmental design. This also includes the transportation system, and the whole purpose is to guide in the most effective manner of establishing communities and settlements. Urban planning takes on various forms, including strategic planning, comprehensive planning, neighborhood planning, historic preservations, and a strategy for the implementation and regulation of these plans.
Environmental protection is one of the many concerns of urban planning and development. Not only is the concern one of the immediate project being planned, but also on a larger scale to the local and global environment. Zoning is another area of concern in the urban planning and its scope includes what is appropriate to the environment and the surrounding areas in which the project will be implemented. For example, when doing a recreational project, it must be taken into account what surrounds the area where a playground will be. Will the playground be too close to an industrial plant? What are the safety risks involved? How close is the playground to a waterways area? All of these factors must be considered when planning and/or undertaking such a project.
