It only reduces environmental impacts as it strictly prohibits any form of development within designated areas.
It exclusively increases economic benefits through tourism without altering the site's traditional uses or practices.
What might be an unintended consequence when applying Christaller’s Central Place Theory to contemporary metropolitan planning?
Increased competition among nearby towns might lead to an improvement in services offered throughout the region.
Enhanced transport links could reduce journey times across different zones within the metropolitan area effectively shrinking 'functional space'.
Planned communities may become too self-sufficient, reducing their reliance on central places for goods and services.
Overemphasis on creating hierarchical networks could inadvertently contribute to spatial inequality between regions.
