The project manager for the review of the Tehran and Alborz urban complex plan stated that the decentralization plan for Tehran and Alborz does not mean preventing economic development. The main goal is to organize activities and direct polluting, water-intensive, energy-intensive, and low-efficiency industries to the areas specified in the land use planning documents. In contrast, the Tehran and Alborz urban complex should move towards strengthening knowledge-based activities and superior services.
