in line with the market demand (Figure

each phase (Table 5.1) is driven by Kigali
Broad Land Requirement established to
respond to the needs of the projected
population and employments in phases.
The key factors and considerations for
phasing demarcation will include:

1. 7- Year Development Programme;

2. Catalyst Programme and
Implementation Projects;
3. Priority areas in redevelopment of
unplanned settlements; and
4. Priority areas in development of
Sites and Services Areas;

The planning in different phases is
