Scheduling urbanization in rural municipalities: Local practices in land-use planning on the fringes of the Paris region

Camille Le Bivic and Romain Melot

Land Use Policy, 2020, vol. 99, issue C

Abstract: In French metropolitan areas, urban sprawl is tending to increase outside of the conurbation and its close periurban ring, and to expand to peripheral rural municipalities. In the Paris region, even though the major part of land converted for urbanization is concentrated in periurban areas, this land consumption is accelerating much faster in small rural municipalities located on the fringes of the region.
