Sustainable cities and communities

This is a Category 1 urban redevelopment project implemented through a landowners' association consisting of over 100 rights holders. Aiming for the effective use of land and planned regional development while improving the local environment and disaster resilience, the project was realized following urban planning approval to create a "town where people can continue to live and work."
