PROBLEMS OF SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT OF SKHIDNYTSIA BALNEOLOGICAL RESORT IN LVIV REGION

Abstract

Skhidnytsia is a new resort in Lviv region that is developing rapidly due to its unique health and recreational resources and location in the Truskavets sub-region. Skhidnytsia has a number of functional and environmental problems due to the peculiarities of the spatial organization of its resort area. Skhidnytsia's resort area has a dispersed, scattered character. This is a set of unevenly distributed territories of autonomous health resort and recreational facilities with limited access for other vacationers. The entire space of the village functions as a resort due to the lack of a public resort area and turns into a field of conflict between permanent residents and resort guests. The interests of treatment, recreation and other economic activities intersect here. Unorganized movement and recreation have a negative impact on the surrounding natural landscapes and balneological resources.
 Today, Skhidnytsia needs a comprehensive urban planning approach to reforming and developing its resort environment. The actual tasks of the spatial reorganization of the existing resort area of Skhidnytsia are: connecting all resort areas with landscape and walking routes into a single planning system, creating a new resort-wide service center for vacationers, developing a resort-wide system of green spaces for mass recreation, improving and developing transport, engineering and resort infrastructure. The priority should be a comprehensive urban planning approach to the spatial development of the Skhidnytsia resort area, which can combine all local efforts and partial solutions of private developers, eliminating inconsistencies in the development and construction of individual resort areas.
