Current Planning Projects
Master Plan for the State of Qatar, 2005
- 2008
The Master Plan for the State of Qatar sets
the stage for development up to the year 2030. This new master plan
encompasses revising the National Physical Development Plan and Local
Area Plan for Inner Doha, a Transportation Master Plan, Infrastructure
Master Plans, and an evaluation of the Greater Doha Structure Plan. New
Zoning regulations and standards will be prepared to allow future
residential growth to be integrated with infrastructure services.
Master Plan for West Bay Business Center
The Master Plan for the West Bay Business
Center will evaluate current parking standards, prepare an office market
study to determine a realistic annual commercial absorption rate, and
determine appropriate heights and densities for future development in
West Bay. An infrastructure master plan and traffic and transportation
modeling will allow development in West Bay to be fully integrated with
services. This project is in conjunction with the Roads Department.
