Madrid Metropolitan Plan

Metropolitan Madrid has a natural directionality along the Sierra de Guadarrama mountain ridge.

This main directionality, along with the Tagus valley, has produced a natural pattern of reticular human settlements.

The Madrid Plan used this natural pattern to constitute the basic reticular board for larger transportation infrastructure.

The metropolitan layer corresponded to the regional (Comunidad) authority.

The application of the methodology to Bogotá in 1998, reinforced by the UNCRD-INTA Report in 2010, has produced 5 main effects:[3] The MSLab (Scales and measures of the contemporary city research lab) at the Politecnico di Milano has developed a proposal of commuter development and metropolitan centralities reinforcement for the mayor's office of Greater Dar es Salaam that largely adheres to the Madrid Plan's approach.
