Case 03 | Koshigaya Lake Town

In the area that had suffered repeated river floods, this new town development project of approx. 230ha was a consolidation of the construction of a large-scale flood control reservoir aiming to improve flood control measures, and an enriched living environment of lush greenery. The development was done in a “compact-city style” with all urban functions accessible within 15-minute walk from the new railway station at the heart of the project, which allowed the construction of a sustainable city, non-dependent on cars. It also contributed to reducing environmental burdens with lower emission of carbon dioxide made possible by the utilization of solar energy, etc.
UR implemented the land readjustment project and constructed the flood control reservoir.
