Technology used to map Lusaka, Zambia is replicable in other African cities to upgrade informal settlements and achieve sustainable urban expansion
Leading organisations Ordnance Survey (OS), the International Growth Centre (IGC) and the Commonwealth Association of Architects (CAA) are responding to the challenges associated with urban growth, and the availability of accurate and up-to-date data for creating well-planned and managed cities, by piloting the creation of an automated digital base map of Lusaka, Zambia.
The Ministry of Local Government is undertaking efforts to promote prosperous and inclusive urban settlements, and ensure Zambia’s towns and cities are resilient to support economic growth. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has further highlighted the need for a better understanding of the city’s informal settlements. ....

MTA construction
The MTA is behind schedule on a state-mandated report meant to encourage transit leaders to make sure they are properly spending the public’s money.
Concerned that the MTA’s costs are too high, legislators in 2019 ordered the agency to produce an annual report comparing its operating expenses to those of similar transit agencies around the world.
Lawmakers pushed the requirement after approving of New York City’s congestion pricing program, which will toll motorists who drive in Manhattan south of 61st St. The program will fund billions in MTA construction when it launches next year and elected officials sought to ensure the money is well-spent. ....

Why Is American Rail So Costly? | City Journal


Infrastructure and energy
Economy, finance, and budgets
Why are American rail projects so costly? The initial results of an ambitious project by three researchers at New York University’s Marron Institute suggest one culprit hiding in plain sight: pointlessly fancy train stations.
On December 9, the NYU researchers Elif Ensari and Eric Goldwyn, trained as urban planners and architects, and Alon Levy, a mathematician and author of Pedestrian Observations, a widely read public transit blog held a panel discussion on the project’s first case study: the Green Line Extension (GLX) built by Boston’s public transit authority, the MBTA. In principle, GLX is simple. It extends an existing light-rail line 4.3 miles into Boston’s inner suburbs, mostly in a trench that already holds commuter rail tracks. But GLX’s costs ballooned after planning began in 2006, reaching $3 billion in 2015 more expensive per mile than most subways. ....
