Demarcations of the urban areas in implementation of the Spatial Structure Plan Flanders - status 2019

This map shows the demarcations of the urban areas in implementation of the Spatial Structure Plan Flanders (RSV). This demarcation is done at the level of plot boundaries on the basis of the establishment of spatial implementation plans (RUP). According to the division of tasks of the RSV, the metropolitan and regional urban areas are demarcated by the Flemish region (via regional RUP), and the small-town areas by the provinces (via provincial RUP). This map makes a classification based on RUP that have been final approved, RUP in (pre)design, or a hypothesis of demarcation based on documents from the planning process prior to the RUP. These demarcations have policy value. They indicate in which areas a spatial policy for urban areas is in force. Outside these areas, a spatial policy for rural areas is conducted. These demarcated areas therefore provide information about the policy desirability of whether or not each plot in Flanders is urban. The demarcations were established after a planning process with local and supra-local actors, and therefore not via a calculation algorithm.
