The credit helps expand locals’ access to improved public transport system, public spaces, preschools, and drainage, wastewater collection and treatment services. It also facilitates the city's urban planning and management with regard to climate change and disaster risks.
81,000 locals will benefit from the “Dynamic city Integrated Development” project, which provides technical assistance for integrated strategic urban planning, public transport planning, and sustainable asset management.
