Urban planning,also known as town planning,city planning,regional planning,or rural planning,is a technical and political process that is focused on the development and design of land use and the built environment,including air,water,and the infrastructure passing into and out of urban areas,such as transportation,communications,and distribution networks and their accessibility. Many professional practitioners of urban planning,especially practitioners with the title "urban planner" study urban planning education,while some paraprofessional practitioners are educated in urban studies;others study and work in urban policy - the aspect of public policy used in the public administration subfield of political science that is most aligned with urban planning. Traditionally,urban planning followed a top-down approach in master planning the physical layout of human settlements. The primary concern was the public welfare,which included considerations of efficiency,sanitation,protection and use of the environment,as well as effects of the master plans on the social and economic activities. Over time,urban planning has adopted a focus on the social and environmental bottom-lines that focus on planning as a tool to improve the health and well-being of people while maintaining sustainability standards. Sustainable development was added as one of the main goals of all planning endeavors in the late 20th century when the detrimental economic and the environmental impacts of the previous models of planning had become apparent. Similarly,in the early 21st century,Jane Jacobs's writings on legal and political perspectives to emphasize the interests of residents,businesses and communities effectively influenced urban planners to take into broader consideration of resident experiences and needs while planning.
