Planning for Large-scale Construction Projects

📖 The Scoop

Large-scale construction projects bring both benefits and problems for communities near the project sites. Those communities need to know about possible socio-economic effects and ways to deal with them. This guide provides information that will help local people, government officials, and developers to develop plans for the successful management of large-scale construction projects. It adopts a traditional planning model in which impact issues are identified, strategies to deal with them are selected and implemented, outcomes monitored, and adjustments are made as necessary. It describes the planning process, outlines the impact assessment and screening process and a number of possible management strategies dealing with issues such as employment, transportation, accommodation, community services, funding, and wind-down, and provides a list of supplementary sources of information about community planning, impact assessment, and growth management.
