| dc.description.abstract | Hetauda was established as a growth center in Central Development Region. It consists one of the largest industrial district in the country. It is located at the cross point of Tribhuvan Highway and Mahendra Highway and is the major link between Kathmandu and Birgunj. Despite of these advantages, Hetauda has not grown as a city with regional influence. This research is concentrated on determining the urbanization trend of Hetauda and its effect on the surrounding areas, influence of Hetauda on its hinterland and to come up with strategies to develop Hetauda as a city with regional influence. The research has determined zone of influence of Hetauda, region for the study. Surveys were conducted in 18 VDCs, 9 surrounding VDCs & 9 VDCs at border of the district, customer survey were also conducted to collect additional data. These data and information available were analyzed to determine the development linkage between Hetauda and its influence zones. Trend analysis and SWOT analysis was conducted as part of this study. Hetauda has performed the role of growth center to surrounding VDCs but its relation with farther VDCs is dependent on presence of other growth center. The farther VDCs are dependent on other growth centers for heath, education and trade, as better services and facilities are available in those centers. To strengthen the linkage with rural areas, strategies recommended mainly focused on upgrading of already existing social and physical infrastructure, prioritizing development of industrial district and new facilities. | en_US |
