 A NEW CAPITAL
 When the new state of Pakistan was founded in 1947, Karachi acted as the capital city. However, it was 
 difficult for Karachi to remain in this role due to a number of drawbacks such as the climate and the 
 state of the existing buildings. Rather than try to overcome these drawbacks, the government decided to 
 create a new capital city. In 1959, a commission was established to investigate the possible locations of 
 this new city. The advisor appointed to the commission was Dr Doxiadis, a famous architect and city 
 planner. Exercise 12. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to 
each of the questions.
 LESSONS FROM CURITIBA
 Urban planning deals with the physical, economic, and social development of cities. Today urban 
 populations are increasing rapidly, and growing cities are putting enormous pressure on the 
 environment. For this reason, the type of urban planning found in Curitiba, in southern Brazil, is more 
 important than ever. 
 Curitiba is a fine example of how urban planning can work. This has not always been the case, however. 
 At one time, Curitiba faced the same problems as many other cities all over the world, namely 
 overcrowding, pollution, and an increased demand for services, transport, and housing. How, then, did 
 Curitiba address these problems? 
 By the 1940s the population of Curitiba had grown to about 150,000 as immigrants from countries such 
 as Japan, Syria, and Lebanon came to work in agriculture and industry. These people needed both 
 housing and transportation. Curitiba's leaders realised that it was not sensible to deal with these 
 problems separately. Consequently, they employed a French planner and architect, Alfred Agache, to 
 find an overall solution. 
 Agache studied all aspects of the problem. He designed a scheme which gave priority to public services 
 such as sanitation and public transport. At the same time, the scheme included centres which helped 
 both community life and commerce to develop, and reduced traffic congestion. This was the first 
 scheme to address several problems of growing cities at the same time. Unfortunately, some parts of his 
 plan were not completed. The result, as described below, was that his scheme only served Curitiba for 
 another 20 years. 
 By the 1960s, the population of Curitiba had grown to about 430,000 inhabitants, so the city had to 
 rethink its needs. In order to do this, the mayor put together a team of architects and town planners led 
 by Jaime Lerner. This team produced the Curitiba Master Plan. This consisted of taking Agache's 
 original plan and adding wide, high-speed roads which crossed the smaller streets. Their proposals also 
 included plans to minimise urban growth, reduce city centre traffic, and preserve the city's historic 
 district. It is clear that the Curitiba Master Plan was one of the first attempts to integrate all aspects of 
 city planning. 
 This integrated approach to urban design was maintained throughout the 1980s as Curitiba's population 
 grew to almost one million inhabitants. Environmental facilities were added, such as a recycling 
 programme for household waste, and parks and 'green' spaces were protected from development. 
 However, good transportation remained central to the planning. 
 Good transportation still remains a priority, together with the needs for jobs. A growing population 
 needs employment, so business parks and centres have been added to encourage new small businesses. 
 All these changes will continue be the population of Curitiba increases, but its city planners are 
 continually searching for solutions to the problems.
