The document proposes several strategies to improve sustainable urban design in Kajang over the next 20 years. These include: 1. Improving public transportation by adding bus stops, taxi stands, bike lanes, and accessibility features for the disabled. 2. Redeveloping and providing more facilities at the existing KTM train station to encourage more public transportation use. 3. Addressing flood risks through improved drainage systems and using sustainable practices like swales. 4. Increasing housing density in the city center and improving existing housing conditions. 5. Developing new parks and green spaces to improve recreation, air quality and aesthetics while protecting vegetation.

3. The public transportation facilities for bus and taxi service at Kajang
Town currently are not in good condition because there is only
one bus stop located in the centre of Kajang town. This bus stop
situated in front of the shops and very near to the main road at
Jalan Besar. It makes the road become crowded with the buses and
also the taxis. At the same time, this bus stop point is the major
source of traffic congested in Kajang town.

5. we suggest to provide a few of facilities and system of public
transport to improve Kajang’s developmental access just as following :
1. Create metro bas
2. Textures pathways with good continuity
3. Dedicated cycle lanes whenever possible
4. Musical crossing signals at signalized intersections (for the blind).
5. Ramps for wheelchairs.

7. The low cost of long-term parking in the City Centre together with
the abundance of parking spaces and the flexibility of movement
associated with car transport, has made car transport the preferred
means of travel in the City.

10. 1) Provide and redevelop the parking lots.
2) Reduce relying on ownership cars and taxis to get
station
3) Facilities getting to the station by using public
transport.
4) Provide more facilities for passenger such as:
(ATM, Suitable waiting rooms, shopping centre
and luggage carriage ).
5) Remove the random workshops near by the
station.
6) Care about external view, and redevelop the
station to be able to attract more people to use (
KTM).

14. Two rivers run through Kajang, Sungai Langat and the branch Sungai
Jelok. Overall, water quality in Kajang is unsatisfactory. Water of Sungai Langat
and Sungai Jelok are particularly polluted. Occurrence of flash floods in Kajang
is also quite high, especially in residential areas (Kampung Sungai Ramal and
Desa Bunga Raya) and city centre. Old drainage systems unable to cope with
current flow and discharge of surface runoff where most of the drainages built
from concrete type that no allow the natural infiltration of precipitation and
cause the peak runoff on
surface.

16. Improve existing drainage systems and build new drainage networks to cope
with today’s demands and environmental friendly implementation such as
“swale”. Swale can control nuisance flooding and provide for the safe
passage of less frequent and larger flood events, minimize the environmental
impact of urban runoff on water quality and ensure the safety of the public
enhance the urban landscape.

17. HOUSING
The housing areas should be divided into 3 parts: high, middle, and
low density. Based on that, in the city centre, the new buildings
must be built as a vertical extended to benefit as much as we can
from the empty areas to use for another function.
Provide the suitable homes for the citizens and vanish the old
buildings which are not suitable to live in.
Reduce the house's rent and maintain the existing buildings.

20. To develop green area the following steps must be done:
1- Provide parks such as (children's playground).
2- develop and create green area to provide healthy air and to make a new look for the
town.
3- Protect vegetation from the damage due to increasing in buildings.
4- develop new places for sports activities.

21. To develop green area the following steps must be
follow:
-There is no sport complex in Kajang. It only has one old stadium.
- Provide parks such as (children's playground).
- develop and create green area to provide healthy air and to make a
new look for the town.
- Protect vegetation area from the damage due to increasing in
buildings construction.
- develop new places for sports activities.

25. Kajang urban life has the potential to be the most resource efficient pattern of
development. Through the regeneration, conservation and rehabilitation of urban
areas the loss of undeveloped or green field land is minimized. The Kajang
Municipal Council will require that previously developed or brown field land is
re-used in the most efficient way and at the same time creates more attractive
places to live and work. A target is set that 100% of new homes in the city will be
built on previously developed sites. Building at higher densities and with compact
layouts maximizes the use of land and reduces the need to travel by car. This
higher density should not compromise the provision of a high quality urban
environment.
A number of Community programs will provide opportunities for training and
capacity-building for local authorities to develop the skills needed, to worldwide
exchange of best practice, knowledge and experience on urban issues for managing
the
urban environment. Moreover, support will be offered for local authorities to work
together and learn from each other. These should be exploited both by the local
authorities and local community.
