Strategic long-term regional urban planning framework. Distinct from the Local Urban Master Plan (PUD), which is operational at the municipal level. A forward-looking urban planning document that outlines, over a defined period, the major development guidelines and development prospects for urban space. It covers one or more contiguous urban agglomerations.
The Master Urban Development Plan (SDU — Schéma Directeur d'Urbanisme) is the urban planning tool defined by Law No. 2020-624 of August 14, 2020 (Code of Urban Planning and Urban Land Domain). It has a forward-looking and prospective character and outlines, over a determined period, the development perspectives and major spatial planning guidelines for urban areas.
Before investing in a parcel of land, it is important to verify its compliance with the applicable SDU. A parcel located in an area designated for urban development may increase in value, whereas a parcel in a non-buildable zone according to the SDU may present problems.
