Abstract

Predicting the environmental effects of spatial plans is made harder by the uncertainties affecting the future evolution of the planning region. Decisions contained in sectoral policies play a significant role, hence they need to be properly considered in Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) of spatial planning. A method to support SEA, based on the comparison of land use zoning options, under different sectoral policies, is developed and tested in the peri-urban region of Milan. Land use scenarios are generated and then assessed against a set of environmental indicators. The results showed the environmental consequences associated with poor co-ordination between spatial and sectoral decisions.
