  • Urban sprawl is one of the most vital features of urbanization. This study investigates the change of landuse pattern and its impact on the area's physical environment, which is on the edge of Rajshahi City Corporation, Kashiadanga. Spatial analysis was used to detect the landuse change and different PRA tools investigated the utility problems resulting from urban sprawl. A large amount of deterioration of natural resources are the result of scattering development. Dwellers of the area are deprived of basic utility facilities and the quality of life also worsens day by day. The pressure of increasing the population is tough to manage without any proper development plan.
