Al-Quseir Strategic geographical position and local environment have played an important role both in the city’s formulation and development. The intermediate cities are considered to be one of the cities that had a vital and powerful foundation in establishing a significant economic and social interaction. Al-Quseir is classified as an intermediate city (according to UIA-CIMES program) that has costal environments with great economic value. This Paper aims to highlight the features of sustainable development to prospers coastal intermediate cities and provide plans and new approaches to be applied to its counterpart, then to control and predict the rates of urban development in order to control the direction of sustainable urbanization in intermediate cities. All of these issues were studied previously from the theoretical point of view that deals with the concepts related to the research problematic, reviewed it through an analytical study of the city represented in Al-Quseir city as a coastal intermediate city on the coast of the Red Sea, to come with an analytical research ended with results & recommendations. | ||||
