The plan also has strategies to achieve these objectives. The plan estimates that the population of Jeju city would increase from 270,842 persons in 1998 to 410,000 persons in 2021.
The plan proposes four spatial axes for Jeju. They are coastal cultural axis, urban life axis, prospective resources axis and green space axis. The urban life axis is selected in the direction to maintaining the existing three communities. Transportation routes are in radiation shape. The green space axe is planned to preserve the Hanla mountain and coastal landscape and to promote the image of a tourism-leisure city. The green space axe is designed in a ladder shape to keep green spaces in the middle of built-up areas.
The plan also has sectoral plans, which include the plan for living zones and demographic distribution, land use planning, transportation plan, telecommunication plan, public facilities planning, industrial development plan, housing plan, environment management plan, landscape plan, green space plan, social development plan, disaster protection plan, and financing plan.
There are three living zones in Jeju. They are Chungang (middle part), Seobu (West) and Dongbu (East). And the plan for living zones is based on the estimation that at least 100,000 population would be reasonable for the self-sufficiency of each living zone. The land use plan explains the present conditions of land use and analyzes developable sites.
The objectives of land use plan lie in sustainable land use, diversity and equity in land use, and effective location of new facilities. Moreover, in land use planning, the demand of residential area, commercial area, industrial area and a citizen welfare town (a city hall) are estimated.
The transportation plan analyzes bottleneck sections and estimates the future traffic volume for road construction plan. Principal roads are divided into inner-city roads and inter-city roads. Functional roads in the plan are the bicycle road built around the Jeju island, an pedestrian road around Tap-dong and Chungang road, and also a coastal
circular road for tourists attraction. The transportation facility plan includes the construction of road to Jeju Airport, the 7th cross road in Yeon-dong, the enlargement of the airport, the construction of a Jeju outport, the relocation of cross-country bus terminal, and the Free Trade Zone near Jeju Airport.
As for the telecommunication plan, the master plan suggests that a local network and information system should be built for living, administration, and industry, and the establishment of an information center should be considered after surveying the number of post offices and telephone offices, the supply rate of telephones and personal computers.
In the matter of the public facilities plan, the allocation of a down block office, a fire station, a police office and a post office in accordance with the characteristics of each facility is recommended.
The industrial development plan shows the basic directions and strategies to agriculture, livestock farming, fishery, mining and manufacturing industries, commercial industries, and tourism industry in the Jeju city. Especially, the plan for the tourism industry points out the need to develop tourist sites where tourists can experience local culture and local life and night tour courses.
In the housing plan, tasks for the housing sector are proposed with a target year of 2021, for instance, to achieve 100% of housing supply ratio, to support low-income households, to restrict housing development to a middle or low density, to diversify housing types to meet diversified demands and to improve the housing conditions. .
On the other hand, the objectives of the environment plan are as follows: to expand the supply of clean energy, to increase the number of instruments to measure pollutant materials, policy shift to demand control in water resources, to diminish wastes, and to promote favoured environment industries.
In the landscape plan, it is aimed to make the most use of the natural environmental value that Jeju has for tourist attractions. Artificial green space is planned along the streets which are used by many tourists to provide a good vista. Furthermore, the landscape plan has a plan to make outlook posts in Jeju Airport and constructing access roads to the Jeju city, which will give tourists a good impression about the Jeju city.
The green space plan introduces the present conditions of city parks in the Jeju city and sets the principles of facility location. It is focused on making residents' access to green space easy, equally distributing community parks for living zones, and locating parks in accordance with the green space axis. The size of parks will be based on 25m2/person and community parks will play double functions of training park and central park.
The social development plan is concerned with health and medical facilities, welfare facilities, educational facilities and cultural facilities. The disaster protection plan diagnoses the present circumstances to deal with disasters and danger areas where disasters may occur and induces comprehensive programs and systems for disaster protection.
