"Reinventing the role of plans in guiding urban transformation: A critical assessment of the capacity of Kumasi’s spatial plans (Ghana) to guide foreseen and unforeseen urban dynamics"^^ . "Spatial plans are lauded because they create an image of how places should develop and ways in which preferred configurations of spatial development will be realised. These plans however, become limited in guiding urban areas in transition. This research assessed the capacity of Kumasi’s spatial plans to guide foreseen and unforeseen urban dynamics. Using mixed methods, including; qualitative data analysis and Geographic Information System (GIS) support analysis, the structure plan and two local plans of Kumasi were analysed. The results showed development in Kumasi emerges out of planned and unplanned processes of change reflecting uncertainty about how independent actors in the urban system will self-organise even when there is a plan. This uncertainty results in development in Kumasi taking a different course in relation to the spatial plans in most cases. We argue that, in order to overcome this, spatial plans should provide the conditions necessary for supporting autonomous development"^^ . "2015" . . . . . . . "Prosper Issahaku"^^ . "Korah"^^ .
