Abstract

Purpose: Particular attention of this article will be given to a selected instrument of operational urban planning which has a French origin - Zone d'Amenagement Concerte_ZAC. The study of this instrument will be preceded by an introduction about the principles of operational urban planning and the system of tools among which the ZAC operates. Design/methodology/approach: The author based the article on the institutional and legal method - the analysis of the French legal regulations, literature and existing studies in the area of French operational urban planning, and in particular the selected planning tool-Zone d'Amenagement Concerte. Findings: The study reveals that France has an extensive set of tools, designed to support the development of the urbanized territory and protect spatial order. The research shows that there is no reason why similar operational tools could not be introduced in Poland. Originality/value: The operational planning instrument-Zone d'Amenagement Concerte - may have a wider positive impact in Polish urban planning reality and could become a catalyst of positive changes helping to counteract dangerous and expensive processes that destroy Polish space, such as urban sprawl. Keywords: operational urban planning, urban design. Category of the paper: Research paper.
