OSORIO ARDILA, Giselle Andrea; RINCON, Luz Marina y MUNOZ REYES, Javier. Implications of Metropolization in the Cota-Chía-Cajicá Axis. Challenges Facing the Conformation of the Bogotá-Cundinamarca Metropolitan Region. Territ. [online]. 2021, n.45, pp.63-86. Epub 25-Jun-2022. ISSN 0123-8418.
Referring to the case of three municipalities surrounding Bogotá, we analyze the distinct features and specific implications of metropolization process. We argue this process is not merely a result of typical urbanization dynamics, but it also comes from specific decision of some social groups, omissions, and absence of coordination between territorial bodies. In that sense, the recently established Bogotá-Cundinamarca Metropolitan Region might be an opportunity to address the problems resulting from metropolization processes and solve some of its shortcomings. Furthermore, its potential lies in the possibility of generating a unified vision of the future and effective coordination between the instruments of planning, management, monitoring and control of land use. Finally, based on this article analysis and as a contribution to the discussions of the debate around the Metropolitan Region, we propose a green belt between Bogotá, Cota and Chía, to reduce the tendency to conurbation and the continuous expansion of the urban area of Bogotá over the Sabana Centro province.
