| Abstract | ||||
| Upper Egypt suffers from many physical problems at the regional level, and which the most important is there is a break in the urban pattern (spatial and functional relationships) for the urban communities of all sizes and patterns, leading to disruption in the relationship between these communities. We find that a limited number of cities suffering from stress and increased demand for services which provided while most other cities suffer from marginalization and absence of its role in at the regional level. Accordingly, the study focuses on the upgrading of the regional urban pattern in Upper Egypt, which suffers from random urban growth. and that application on Nile Valley in Assiut Region as a case study. The study concluded to develop a proposal that could help to solve the urban problem in Upper Egypt as well as their different implications, and to achieve a balance between the current urban pattern, and resettlement of new urban communities. | ||||
