Gargždų miesto erdvinės struktūros plėtra Klaipėdos metropoliniame areale. Regioninis aspektas

Abstract

Urban sprawl processes of large cities are vital for small towns, located in metropolitan areas. But usually it does not guarantee a cohesive development of their inner spatial structure. It is essential to look for new qualitative ways and methods of development regulation for these small towns - starting from regional modeling of a metropolitan area to integration of town's internal spatial structure, maintaining its valuable characteristics.
